cutting Cricut handbooks with SCA

I notice that the old books you used to be able to enlarge them on screen and still get perfect quality image - it was great when paper piecing some of the Disney carts so you could see what some of the little pieces were for, but now you get a very pixelated view which isn't very good - and of course that will make it a rougher image to import into Inkscape.

But when you do a screen save, you get the contents of the entire screen. How do you isolate the desired image?

I use a screen capturing program called SnagIt. It's not free, but I can select any portion of the screen I want and do some editing on the image. I used it in my last job (now laid off) and I found uses for it at home. I see it listed for $49, though I got mine for $19 a few versions ago.
