Web page capture: any tools that do better than integrated functio

When using the "Send to OneNote" button in IE, many web pages are poorly
translated to OneNote and are pretty much unusable. I must use the screen
clip feature on these sites if I want the OneNote page to look anything like
the original.....

The reason lies in the way the website are created.

You might try to *print* the pages to OneNote.

Or even better, use screenshots instead. OneNote has built in screen
clipping but SnagIt (http://www.techsmith.com) is better and can scroll the
page to get the whole thing, follow links, etc.

The screenshots will be searchable in OneNote due to the OCR.

SnagIt is a great tool and wouldn't it be awesome if their tool would
automatically insert the resulting screen clipping directly into OneNote?
One can dream : )

100% d'accord.
I simply love SnagIt and it's one of the most often used tools on my
systems.

And I often use the "Studio" for covering the most serious
shortcommings of ON (the lack of "grouping" images and annotations).

Yes, and this works fine.

I'm dreaming with you ;-) ;-)

Did you you contact them in this respect?

And possibly a task for the PowerToys freaks.

Thanks for the "SnagIT" suggestion. I have purchased a copy and have found it
very useful for all my screen capture and capture edits needs.......

Been away from the newsgroups for a little bit, but wanted to share an
update to the recommendations for SnagIt:
TechSmith has released a SnagIt to OneNote accessory. You can find it on
their website. I blogged about it here:
http://www.lockergnome.com/nexus/callkathy/2007/07/25/snagit-to-onenote

Play around with it. I am guessing you will love it as much as SnagIt
itself....
