I couldn’t figure out how to work in the key sequence, and I was sure people might not get that you had to hold Ctrl down when you pressed the second key. I’ll try to think of a better way to word that.

As for print screen, we have a couple patrons who want to print various websites, but the website either doesn’t provide for easy printing, or is so poorly coded so that what looks like it should print as one page actually prints on five pages. So I’ve shown people the print-screen-then-paste-to-Powerpoint trick, which is a nice workaround.

In thinking about how I would present this to patrons at my library, I’d probably move “(press & hold first key, then press second key)” below “Cut, Copy & Paste,” so that it reads better… although you’re probably trying to stress how the buttons should be pressed.

Oh, any particular reason for including “print screen”? Just curious.
