There are scores of possible usages, from large web-archiving suits to small one-time testing scripts; but the general purpose snapshot tools (either PrintScreen or specialized software) aren’t very good for the task. If you want one powerful yet compact solution for the problem which can be used virtually with any programming language, take a look to HtmlCapture and fall in love with it!

Support of an image formats is really full-featured, it means you can set a JPEG compression level, GIF compression method, create multi-page TIFF images — and all those settings are easy and well-documented. | | | Learn more about HtmlCapture ActiveX Control… |
