I've learned that one Windows feature is not very well known. You don't need to use the screen capture feature of a graphics application. Pressing the Windows "Print Screen" key will do it (at least up through Win98SE). The advantage of this is speed, avoiding the menus and escape sequences that most graphics applications go through. You can capture, ALT+TAB, paste screen as you're working, ALT+TAB back to your application, and repeat. You can then edit the lot of them later. So if you only need a few bars in Finale, open Finale and your graphics app. Zoom in to those few measures, hit "Print Screen", ALT+TAB to the graphics app, paste, ALT+TAB back to Finale, find the next batch of measures, and repeat. When you're done, trim, save, and you'll have fairly good-resolution images to paste into Word for printing.
