one of the things I miss most about physical books is the simple luxury of making copies if you're an e-reader owner like me and you want to print out a page for reference or for highlighting and saving important info you might be wondering if it's possible to get physical copies of these digital pages well with the little trickery you can do it here's how depending on what device you're using head to either the web version or desktop version of your reader since I'm using a new cat home that's barnesandnoble.com for me here I'll open up the web reader next I'll open up this copy of the public domain classic Dracula and go to the page I want to print here I'll adjust the font size to my preference then resize the browser window so that it's at about the same aspect ratio as printer paper now take a screenshot of the page on windows launch the snipping tool and select just the eva page when you've grabbed the shot make sure to save it now open it up and print it make sure not to stretch it since that will blur the text finally set it to print in black and white only and hit print as you can see it's pretty close to making copies of an actual book in fact it's even better since you have control over the font size but remember that if you want to do any highlighting your best bet is to print with a laser printer otherwise you'll get ugly streaks that look something like this just repeat this process for any other pages you want to print but be sure to tackle this project for personal use only oh and if you have an e ink reader you can just make a copy of the screen that looks something like this but do plan to do some trimming if you have any questions or tips hit me up on Twitter and check out the step-by-step instructions on how to see Netcom for CNET I'm Sharon Vaknin you
