Any way to "grab" (or other screen shot utility) directly to PDF?

I need to repeatedly capture just part of a screen window and save as a PDF file. Right now, I use the "grab" utility, but it only seems to save it as a TIFF file. Then I have to use "preview" to open that TIFF file and resave again as a PDF.
Is there any way to save my partial screen capture just once as a PDF instead of going through my current 2-step process? Possibly saving to JPEG may also work too.
Thanks!

TinkerTool will allow you to change the type of file that the default screenshot utility produces. Applications like Skitch give you more dynamic control over the format and destination of every screenshot you take.

  • Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home   power button in the iPad device?

    Hi Team,
    Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home + power button in the iPad device.We need to avoid the screen capture option due to security reason.
    thanks ,

    Hi Peace, Clyde,
      Thanks for information. Using the API  UIApplicationUserDidTakeScreenhotNotification (iOS7)  send the notification after the screenshot taken.  Using this api is it possible to block the screen shot caputure option.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • I wanted to know how to view the gifts I've sent to people and (if possible) know if they received and downloaded them. Is there any way to do that, other than asking the person?

    I wanted to know how to view the gifts I've sent to people and (if possible) know if they received and downloaded them. Is there any way to do that, other than asking the person? Obviously I want the gift to be a surprise (for my best friend specifically) so asking them if they received it would ruin that.

  • After using iMatch, I have duplicate music.  Is there any way to remove duplicates other than manually?  Thx

    Hi Jim,  I don't understand how this would help me in my situation.  I loaded an old project, selected the clip edits that I needed, and then loaded the new project and pasted those edits into it, thus creating a duplicate multi-cam sequence.
    Are you saying that before I paste, if I navigate to the old project in the media browser and import the multi-cam sequence into my project, Premiere will merge that with the exact same multi-cam sequence in my new project so that when I paste it won't create a duplicate?

    Had Christmas pictures of family and friends.  I'll be so sad if I can't them back. 

    You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.
    If you failed to do this, then they are very likely gone.
    You can try restoring from backup

  • Is there any way to fix the window screen grab in 10.5?

    For whatever reason, the window capture function (CMD-SHIFT-4, then SPACE) in OS X 10.5 now insists on including the shadow of the window being captured. Given how much documentation I write this is a HUGE setback for me; what used to take a few seconds now takes several minutes since I now have to edit every image in Photoshop to remove the shadow, or use CMD-SHIFT-4 without the SPACE and hope my marquee is accurate.
    Is there any way to fix this "improvement" (ahem) in 10.5?
    <Edited by Moderator>

    Here is the problem.
    Let's say you have a window that's sized to, say, 400x300, and you want to grab that window. You hit SHIFT-CMD-4, then tap SPACE, then click on the window.
    Up until OS X 10.5, you would get an image file on your desktop that, when opened, contained a 400x300 graphic of that window.
    Starting with 10.5, when you open that image you get an image that's LARGER than 400x300 and contains the window plus the shadow that OS X puts around it, with transparency.
    Yes, they look great when you post them in documents with any color background. But that's only useful if you have an actual design-need for a drop shadow. Believe it or not, there are countless instances where a drop shadow is NOT needed or wanted. This means that I have to edit every file to remove the drop shadow which is a waste of time. Before Apple forced the drop shadow, I had the choice of whether to include a drop shadow or not when I work with the file in InDesign, and the drop shadow would work beautifully in any color background.

  • Is there any way to easily delete "other" space on my iPad?

    I keep having problems with "other" space on my iPad. My 64GB iPad is always running close to capacity, and often when I try to sync too much data, the sync fails and I end up left with some corrupt files that become the infamous "other" space you can see in iTunes.
    Recently, I tried to clear up space on my iPad, and deleted all photos (including 2.7GB of photo stream).
    I had about 5Gb of "other" space, so I figured it was time for a painful restore process that takes about 3-4 hours on my iPad.
    Before doing the "restore", I did one last sync.
    After the restore was done, the "other" space was gone, but at the same time I found that some of the clean ups I had done were lost. Photostream was still enabled and was still using up 2.7GB of space.
    I disabled Photostream, and to my annoyance, the 2.7GB of space taken up by the photos disappeared, but it simply moved from the "Photos" category over to the "Other" category. Sigh!
    I don't want to do another restore again, but I would really like to reclaim that 2.7GB of space.
    Is there any way besides dong another restore? Rebooting didn't help.

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Is there any way to disable the lock screen with out the screen staying on?

    I know there is away to disable the pass lock but is there a way to disable the screen from locking every time the screen goes off? cause it's so much easier to just press the answer button than to slide it to unlock. phone versions iPhone 4s and iPhone 5c.

    You're confusing a direct answer with a rude one.  Wjosten's reply wasn't rude.  It was accurate and direct, without any sugercoating.  You can't get the device to operate the way that you want (lock the screen, but not really 'lock' the screen).  It's not a 'screensaver' like on your computer.  It's a lock screen, designed to prevent accidental activation of the device screen, and possibly launching apps, making phone calls, etcetera.
    If you want an option added that allows the device to do what you want, tell Apple.
    www.apple.com/feedback
    This is a technical assistance forum, not an 'emotional assistance' forum.  Wjosten was not rude or insulting in any way.  You were.
    This is where we tell you how to solve your technical issues.  There are no shoulders to cry upon here.
    Direct, accurate information.  That's what wjosten provided.

  • I have sold my IPhone 4 and forgot to delete Apple ID , email and wipe the IPhone, is there any way to do it other then "find my IPhone app"

    I Have changed my Apple ID password but that won't help as all my notes, messages, emails etc are on there, is there any way to wipe the IPhone without having it anymore? I can't erase the IPhone though "find my IPhone" app as I didn't download it on that IPhone. Thanks

    Go to icloud.com.  Log in with your Apple ID & Password.  Go to the Find My iPhone section.  Perform a remote wipe of the device.
    You don't have to have downloaded any app.  You only have to have enabled the Find My iPhone option under Settings > iCloud.  If you did not do that, then you cannot remotely access the device.
    If that's the case, then change ALL of your account passwords; email, banking, etc.  All of them.  And then monitor those accounts very closely!

  • Is there any way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed.  Can the print screen be moved?

    Is there a way to stop the print screen from dropping down on top of the page to be printed.  Can the print screen be moved?  When the print screen drops down, it covers the page and the info needed to create the file.  Thank you

    You will find that this is application dependent.  Most Apple applications such as Safari and Mail will use the "sheet" type of dialog boxes that you are referring.  There is no way for the user to change that behavior.  Other, non-Apple, applications like Firefox use a "modal" dialog box for printing etc.  The modal boxes can be moved around so you can see the page behind.

  • Some downloaded apps are oriented sideways when my iPad is sideways in my Zaggfolio keyboard case and I cannot find any way to rotate my iPad screen so the App appears vertically

    Some downloaded apps are oriented sideways, because my iPad is sideways in my Zaggfolio keyboard case, and I cannot find any way to rotate the apps so they are vertical when my iPad is horizontal in my Zaggfolio case.  I sent a question to the app developers and one of them responded that I had asked a good question and they would consider it on their next update.  Does that mean that I have to remove my iPad from my keyoard case every time I want to use those apps.  This issue is only happening on some apps.  Also, my iPad is not in the locked position.

    You can lock the rotation with the little slider switch located under your volume toggle. however locking rotation is an 'all or nothing' proposition. you can't choose the portrait or landscape in a 'per app' basis.
    In addition there are some apps that don't rotate.
    When I use an app that wants to be in portrait with my zagg folio I just turn it and hold it that way. the lack of ease of rotation is the oen major downfall of that case.

  • Is there a way to select every other page in a multi page pdf and convert it to grayscale?

    I'm going to ask this question in a few sub-forums, so if you think you've seen it, you might have.
    Where I work I use a program that can print to pdf. We use it to produce mailings, usually postcards, that are addressed.
    I often end up with a 500 page document that will print on 250 sheets of cover stock, which will get cut into 1,000 postcard, all pre-addressed and sorted by zip code.
    Usually, the address side is all black and the front is color. The printers we use can print a black click on the address side and a color click on the other, IF the pdf is set up that way. Otherwise, both sides will be counted as color clicks.
    I know I can select pages individually in a pdf and convert them to grayscale and those pages will be counted by the printer as black clicks, which are cheaper than color clicks.
    The problem is, I have not figured out how to convert all the odd numbered pages to grayscale at once. As a result, I usually end up printing the color side simplex, then putting the job back in the tray and printing the black side. Of course, that only works if only one side is personalized, sometimes both sides are.
    Is there a way to select every other page in a pdf and convert it to grayscale?

    The Acrobat SDK has sample code that shows how to convert the colors for one page (the first page of a document). This sample can easily be adjusted to process every other page. You can then use an Action that executes this JavaScript to process the document. Do you know how to create an Action? If so, you can use this script (as I said, adapted from the sample in the SDK) to convert all odd pages (1, 3, 5, ...):
    // Get a color convert action
    var toGray = this.getColorConvertAction();
    // Set up the action for a conversion to RGB
    toGray.matchAttributesAny = -1;
    toGray.matchSpaceTypeAny = ~toGray.constants.spaceFlags.AlternateSpace;
    toGray.matchIntent = toGray.constants.renderingIntents.Any;
    toGray.convertProfile = "Gray Gamma 1.8";
    toGray.convertIntent = toGray.constants.renderingIntents.Document;
    toGray.embed = true;
    toGray.preserveBlack = false;
    toGray.useBlackPointCompensation = true;
    toGray.action = toGray.constants.actions.Convert;
    // Convert every other page
    for (var i=0; i<this.numPages; i++) {
      console.println("Processing page " + i);
      if (i % 2 == 0) {  // change to "if (i % 2 != 0) {" for all even numbers
      console.println("in page " + i);
      console.println(this.colorConvertPage(i, [toGray], []));
    As I've indicated in the code, you can change this to all even numbers by changing the == to !=
