This is the software publisher's description.

Using SnagIt, you can select and capture anything on your screen then easily add text, arrows or effects and save the capture to a file or share it immediately by email or IM.

Capture and share an article, image, or web page directly from your screen. Or capture and share any part of any application that runs on your PC.

Because SnagIt is so flexible, there are thousands of ways that it can add speed, creativity and ease to your everyday tasks, whether you are working online or on your desktop. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Combining images with text is a much more powerful way to communicate than using text alone. This is why SnagIt captures are such an effective way to get your point across.

Capture exactly what you see on your screen, an image, an article or part of a web page. Then email it right from SnagIt to a colleague, technical support or even your best friend.

With SnagIt, you can easily add company logos or other branding elements to your PowerPoint presentations to give them a custom professional look. You can even add short video clips of onscreen activity to training presentations.
