gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Click OK.
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Switch to your Windows-based graphics program and choose Paste from its Edit menu (or however you paste in the program).

When you copy, save or print a picture, you will set options in the same picture export options window. In the case of printing there will be extra options, but the top half of the window will always be the same.
