Paperport: Screen: Step: How to show what you mean in steps in the 
screens? [support / stack / pdf]
---
When you want to explain to somebody else (e.g. support) what you mean,
(with regard to your computer) you could show this in a series of
screenshots.
---
By adding text, color highlighting, and drawing lines or arrows you
can further show what you mean.
---
Then you send it as 1 (pdf) document.
