I'm searching for a simple way to create a screenshot from a web page, i. e. convert the rendered page into a PNG (or something similar) graphic format. This is intended to be used for usability and design visualization where different components of the web page can be "colored" using Gimp to show their structure by "inking" the different elements. The idea of taking a screenshot from the web browser may look sufficient at first, but it is problematic when the web page doesn't fit horizontally or vertically. This sometimes doesn't even work when using the browser in "total fullscreen" (which is 1400x1050 or 2800x1050 here). Using the browsers "print to PS" functionaliy also add pagination that is not desired, and "continuous form printing" export doesn't exist. How would you suggest to solve this task? CLI utilities are welcome - the less interaction, the better. It doesn't matter if the result is a 800x10000 px image with 300 px white margin left and right. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
