A government office wants to receive in a GIF file the text we have in a line
of a Word document. I know we can do a print screen but the challenge is the
image should be submitted in a 732 width by 39 height dimension.
Do you know a method to accomplish this in the fastest way?

Even pasting the screen shot into Paint, you may be able to crop to a
certain pixel height/width. I feel sure you could do this with SnagIt, but
if you don't already have it, that might not be especially fast (though you
can download a trial version from www.techsmith.com).

If this is a re-occuring and/or high volume application, then give me a
call to discuss how our product ($695) could provide you with the
appropriate output by just printing the documents. If it's just for a
one-time webpage banner or logo for a company listing, you're better
off with the 100's of imaging tools available.

Dead easy in Paint but whatever for? Only a government department could have
such requirements!

Thank you Suzanne,
I created a boxed GIF file in Paint with those dimensions and pasted it
non-opaque over the text screen shot, to cut after. Not fast, but functional
