FastStone Capture 8.4
With the installation of FSCapture, the user receives a convenient tool for creating screenshots and videos from a computer. In addition to taking a banal photo, you can immediately change the photo using the built-in graphic editor.
In the program, you can not only create a screenshot and edit it, but also immediately send the file. For example, paste it into Word, into any graphic editor, send the image by mail or to a website via FTP.
For ordinary saving a screenshot to your computer, simply select the required format from the following: BMP, GIF, JPEG, PCX, PNG, TGA, TIFF, PDF.
