Tutorial: How to create screenshots

Often, HelpSetMaker will be used to create documentation for programs. It is important to describe actions and features not only by text, but also by pictures. This tutorial shows you how nice screenshots can be created for inclusion into HelpSetMaker documents. We need

• a screenshot program. In the examples, we'll work with KSnapshot, the KDE screenshot program. Of course, you can use any other program.

• an image editor. This tutorial shows the needed steps using GIMP, a free image manipulation program. Gimp is available for free for Linux and Windows platforms.
