I'm not sure what platform you're on, but I place Max patches and symbols into scores and documents frequently straight from a screen capture. I just use Grab in Mac OS X 10.4.8. The resolution I get is acceptable for my use in scores/Word docs, etc. Grab is incredibly easy to use, if you do have a Mac. From within any program (you don't have to open Grab from the Utilities folder to use it):

Command-Shift-3: Capture entire screen
Command-Shift-4: Capture a selection
Command-Shift-4, release and then press space bar: Capture the full size of any window, dialog box, menu bar, etc. that you click on after pressing space bar

I don't know if this helps at all. If you'd like, I can contact Miller Puckette who wrote the original program and subsequent documentation (filled with visual examples) to see how he has done it. He's still writing Pd documentation, so I'm sure he'd be happy to help.

i need to place an image of a max patch into a score legend, the image is what the technician will see onscreen (a max/MSP window) when performing the piece. the image i have is readable but not really of a satisfactory quality, and i would like to improve it somehow. doubt it makes a difference for this, but the patch is a standalone.

anyone have any suggestions for the best way to do this?
