Most users end up holding their head in frustration when the need to grab a screenshot arises, especially in case of web pages. The process involves several steps and requires more than just one application. The common method of grabbing a screenshot is to press the [Print Scrn] button on the. keyboard and open an image editing software like MS-Paint or IrfanView and pasting it. Later prcocessing involves cropping the unwanted regions from the image using image enhancement tools. This process gets even lengthier when one needs to capture an entire page. Since most monitors do not support astronomical resolutions, it isn't always possible to capture an entire page. Instead, users have to take snapshots of different parts of the page and then stitch these images together to get a comprehensive view of the entire page. Firefox has a helpful add-on that can minimize your problems by quite a measure. It's called 'Screengrab'. Follow these steps below to download and install the application.

Select like the capture method and also select the format in which you would like to save the web page as.

Click 'OK' for the changes to take effect. Now that you have configured settings, it is time to see how the application works.

Open the web page that you want to save as an image.

Click the Screengrab icon, present on the status bar of the page.

You will come across two options, 'Save' and 'Copy'. While the former directly saves the web page as an image, the latter just copies it onto your clipboard.

Under each of these, you have three different options:

Complete Page/Frame - Saves the entire page irrespective of the dimensions and page size.

Visible portion - Saves only the portion of the site that can be seen on your browser.

Selection - Requires you to select the boundary of the region that has to be saved.
