Jacque's suggestion for PDF printing is excellent. That will get you a file. But you mentioned you want this to end up on the clipboard for pasting into other programs.

Charles, try something like this: An area of your card holds the fields you want to copy. Put that rect of that area into variable myFieldRects Calculate the width of that rect and place it into variable myRectWidth Calculate the height of that rect and place it into variable myRectHeight Now here is where improving the resolution comes in. By using the ‘at size’ parameter you can essentially ‘enlarge' the image you capture. Just put amount of the enlargement you want into variable multiplier. Let’s say 10 times. So altogether we have: Put "20,100,700,150" into myFieldRects Put 680 into myRectWidth Put 50 into myRectHeight put 10 into multiplier put the windowID of this stack into winID export snapshot from rect(myFieldRects) of window winID at size (myRectWidth * multiplier),(myRectHeight * multiplier) to myimg as JPEG set clipboarddata["image"] to myimg Paste into, say, a Word doc. Now change multiplier to 1 - that will give you an ‘unbenlarged’ image. Now paste that into the same Word doc and look closely at the difference in resolution. You could try 'as PNG', too.
