Try using the <alt>+<Enter> keystroke to get the dos-shell windowed (instead of full-screen), and then use the <alt>+<print_screen> keystroke to grab the pascal window only. From there, you can paste it into you word processor.
If you like, you can also press <alt>+<space> to get the system menu, choose 'properties' and select a screen font that is best suited for the documentation work.
what we've found is that the black screens waste ink, esp where there are a lot of screen shots, so you may want to paste the image into a graphic editor (something simple like microsoft photo editor), and invert the black screens to white screens.
alternatively, you can just change the black screens in your application using:
uses crt;
begin
...
textattr:=$70; clrscr;
end.
hope that helps..
