Macintosh Class notes for 1-19-10
I am creating a word processing document, and when I print it, it doesn't print correctly.
1. before you print a document use "print preview"
2. Go to the file menu
3. Choose Print Preview
4. The page you see is what will print
5. If you like what you see, click the printer icon or print on the top right
OR
click close to close the preview and then make any needed adjustments or changes
Frustrated about extra useless pages being printed when printing from the internet?
1. Print Preview will eliminate the waste
2. Go to File--->Print
3. At the print dialog window click the Preview button on the bottom left
4. A preview of what is to print appears
5. Look on the right to see how many pages will print and what content is on each page
6. Decide which page # to print
7. Click Cancel to exit print preview
8. Click on the page you want to print in the background
9. go to file and print again
10. in the window that appears below pages type which page you want ex. 2 to: 2
11. Then click print to print EXACTLY what you want
Use GRAB to capture an image of anything you see on your screen, like a photo, part of a map, the entire screen, or even selected text.

2. click grab on the dock to open it
3. click capture
4. choose selection to choose part of the screen, window to get the entire visible window, or screen for everything you see on the screen
5. Follow the directions, selection, click hold and drag over what you want
6. Grab will grab the image and show it to you so you can print or save it
