Default ETKA Illustrations... how to save and print external to ETKA?

Some of you guys seem to post those images regularly. How do you do it? All I seem to be able to do is zoom on the illustration within ETKA. TIA

Printscreen, paste into your favorite picture editor and save as a jpg.

But all I see are tiny images to the left of the parts list. Will that work?

Whatever you see in the active window (on the screen) exactly as you see it, will be what gets copied to the clipboard to be pasted.

If your looking to detail, zoom the illustration (to get the closeup) then print screen.

HTH.

Is there anyway to view just the picture at a full size?

If you have ETKA on your computer you can choose between pix with text, pix alone and text alone. But if you're using the on-line versions, you have to take what you get.

If you copy and paste into a pix program like Paint Shop Pro or Picassa or Adobe, you can play with the image to enlarge or shrink before you print.

You need to view ETKA on your computer with the screen setting at 1280 by 1024. Open My Computer, click on Display, use the Settings tab and move whatever is the screen size gauge to 1280X1024. Click "OK". Then open ETKA and you see each page full screen.

Default Perhaps I should have been more specific...

I can print the pics alone. If I want to post the images here then I would have to scan them.

If I print to a file is there a way to import to Adobe or Paint or some sort of freeware that will make it a jpg?
