Hi all! I was taking a look at the printing issue, I have a mac, and while the print screen solution is available here (different method though) i wanted to find another alternative Playing in squeak I found that clicking on the sketch that you make (right click?) you get a list of options. One of them is to export as an image. I am using squeak 3.9 and it gives me several options: jpg, bmp, gif and png. I guess you can then open that file with a picture viewer of your preference and print it from there Daniel

It sounds like you had some fun. If you are running on a windows machine then you can just print the screen. To do that, do the following.
On a laptop press these three buttons down. So that they are all down at one time. Ctrl – Fn – Print Scrn the Fn and Print Screen are usually in a different color like blue or green.
On a regular keyboard just press Ctrl – Print Scrn. The button is usually in a block in the top just right of the regular keys.
Now you have your image in memory on your computer. To print it you need to put it into a printable document. If you have Word then you can open word and select Edit->Paste from the menu, or you could press Ctrl – v. This will place the picture into the file and you can print it.
If you do not have Word, then look for Programs > Accessories > WordPad. Open WordPad and then paste as above by using either Edit -> Paste from the Menu, or pressing Ctrl and v together.
I hope you had fun with squeak. Don’t forget to check out Scratch. Scratch is the Squeak software written at M.I.T. that allows your kids to make their own games. They can even put their own pictures in. It’s really fun, even for old fogies.
Hope that helps, Ron Teitelbaum

do you know if there is anyway to print something from squeak.... long story, but my children made a great drawing in squeak for a school project - but neither the teacher or me can figure out how to print..... we spent hours on the picture, there has to be a way...hopefully...
