The screengrab add-on I've been using with Firefox so I can archive clips is suddenly incompatible with Firefox. I haven't found anything to match it for Safari or Internet Explorer -- that is, something that will save complete screens as jpegs or pdfs. I don't use Chromium, but I could easily download it and start using it if it has a good screengrab. What do you use?

The print and save as PDF works on Macs.
Yes, and this looks like the way to go, because it gives you the entire page.
Aha! Very good. Thank you.
Have you tried Skitch? It's a free app that offers tons of flexibility, and is compatible with Evernote. I use it for presentations and it works wonderfully:

I've got the latest version of Firefox and use a plug-in called ScrapBook. Works great for screen captures.
I use the PrintFriendly website ... you can convert most web pages to either a print-friendly of .pdf version. http://www.printfriendly.com/
Whenever a new update to FF is rolled out there are always a few plugs ins that aren't compatible (because of how the developer coded them). I have mine set to auto update when they're updated and have found that they're usually fine within a couple of weeks. If you need your screen grab sooner, you have your fix, but I'd expect the plug in to be working fine within a short period of time. You may want to check manually for an update - just in case you don't have it set to auto update.
That sounds like the best and simplest solution I've seen. Still, I can't wait until screengrab and the new Firefox are compatible again. Many thanks, Maralyn.
I have to go command - to decrease the size in order to have the entire article display on the screen. Then i do the command, shift 3. I put it in iphoto and crop.
However, saving as a pdf is a good alternative and more readable.
Irene, I'm assuming that PDF trick work on PCs rather than MACs; is that right? And/or which browsers?
