The quality of any image captured from screen will be proportional to the
quality of your monitor. A good image edit program may help you restore
sharpness to images. A trial copy of PaintShop Pro is available from
ftp.winternet.com/users/jasc/psp30.zip.

To capture and transfer any image to a word processor:
1) With image centered on screen press Print Screen key. This sends the
image to your Windows clipboard.

2) Open Paintbrush or another editor and press Ctrl+V or Edit, Insert. The
captured screen appears.

3) Use whatever tool that allows you to cut away unwanted portions of the
image. Save the modified image to a disk.

4) Open the word processor and insert the image at the desired location in
the document.

This explanation assumes you do not have a specialized capture program. Of
course with the right software there are easier methods.
