*** What SnagIt is ***

SnagIt is a Microsoft Windows 3.x documentation tool. With SnagIt you can place great looking screen shot and images into your documentation. One of SnagIt's key features is its full support for Windows dynamic data exchange (DDE). With DDE SnagIt may be integrated with any application that supports DDE. Included with the commercial program is a macro that demonstrates the ease with which SnagIt may be integrated with Microsoft Word for Windows.

SnagIt is a new product which has gone through extensive beta and quality testing. Thousands of users have down loaded previous free demo versions. Now SnagIt is available in a fully functional "try before you buy" version.

Also available are multi-user licenses and quantity discounts.

*** Corporate Windows Writers and Users ***

Creating documentation for your applications can be a frustrating task. Importing Windows screens or images into your manual, report or proposal is a cumbersome, time-consuming task that can try the patience of the most adept user. SnagIt simplifies the documentation process.

*** Windows Software Developers ***

Adding screen printing capability to your Microsoft Windows applications is now easier than ever with the commercial version of SnagIt. With the use of DDE your application can control all aspects of SnagIt.
