There are cases when we want to take a snap shot of a Adobe Reader (pdf) file. Or we see some content in a pdf file and wish to convert a portion as an image file.

If you have running Windows with at least Office 2003, this is a very simple process.

1. open Microsoft Office Pictures Manager. Select Thumbnails view. Make sure that you are in the directory/folder where you want to store the file.

2. In the Adobe Reader, at the top pull down menu, go to “Tools”, “Select & Zoom” and then “Snapshot Tool”.

3. Use this tool to select and copy the image.

4. Over at the Microsoft Office Pictures Manager, Paste the image. It will automatically create a new bmp file.

5. If the created file is too small, repeat 3 and 4 with larger zoom at Adobe Reader.

Please note that, some Adobe Reader file can be password protected to prevent copying.
