At work, I use the Print Screen feature on my computer (WinXP Pro SP1) all the time. It creates a .bmp formatted image. I them convert the image in Paint to .jpg format for my e-mails.
I've never really questioned that things could be different until yesterday I had occasion to e-mail a screen print from my home computer (WinXP Pro SP2). This computer created a .jpg formatted image.
Does anyone know if there is a way to manually set the image format for the Print Screen functionality in WinXP Pro? Or is it possible that the .jpg format is only available with SP2 (our IT department continues to resist updating our machines with SP2)?
Thanks for your help,
