In this method, we’ll walk you through the steps on how to easily copy your document and paste it as an image. This, by far, is the fastest and the most direct way to save a Word file as an image without using another application.
Here are the steps to do just that!
Now that we have our document opened, select the part of your file or the entire document that you need to save as an image. Then, right-click on the selection and click the Copy option.
Alternatively, hit the CTRL + C shortcut keys on your keyboard to copy.
Open a new Word document. You should see the Paste button in the Home tab. Click on the down arrow below the button to access the Paste drop-down menu. Then, select the Paste Special option.
This will launch the Paste Special dialogue box right in the middle of your screen. Now, select the Picture (Enhanced Metafile) option and click the OK button to paste the selected document as a picture. Otherwise, click the Cancel button.
This launches the File Save dialogue box.
Locate the folder where you want your image file to be saved. Type in the filename in the File Name field, then click on the Save as Type drop-down menu.
After that, select the image file type that suits your needs. If you haven’t decided yet, you can always choose the default Portable Network Graphics file type.
In this method, we’ll use Windows 10 Snip & Sketch Tool to quickly snip the part of the document you want to be saved as an image. This can come in handy especially if you need to take a snapshot from different parts of your file.
On your keyboard, press the Windows logo + SHIFT + S keys to launch the Snip & Sketch tool.
Now, click and drag your mouse from the top left of the part you wish to capture to its bottom right.
This will highlight a rectangular shape snipping of the part of the document.
Finish the snipping by letting go of the cursor. A notification-like memo will appear at the lower right corner of your window.
Now, click the memo to launch the Snip & Sketch work window.
On the Snip & Sketch window, move your cursor to the top-right corner of the window. Click the Save icon to launch the Save As dialogue box.
The steps to save using the Save As dialogue box are the same as the previous method.
