How to save clipboard image as .bmp

Question

clipboard

when I use print screen it seems like the clipboard is saving the image as jpg is there any way to swap the file format to bmp?

Answer 1

I've tried paint, photoshop, the snipping tool, no matter what I do and copy/past has jpg artifacts to the point where copying and pasting twice will make text in an image unreadable

Answer 2

Use SaveAsFile also called SaveToFile also called PasteIntoFiles:

Answer 3

Hi,

-      Which application are you using to paste the images?

If you’re using Paint, you can change the format of the image from .JPG to .BMP when saving the picture from the “save as type:” drop-down:

Alternatively, you can use Snipping tool to capture screen shotsor snip, of any object on your screen, and then annotate, save, or share the image.

See Snipping Tool
