From the supplier: Alternative graphical tools to screen snapshots in computer manuals are given. Snapshots should be avoided as much as possible since they separate steps in a procedure and even dwarf the text and headings. They should be used only if the computer screen is not visible, if the user wants to see the display and for beginners.
