You may also use the shortcut [alt]+[printscreen] to copy the top window to your clipboard, or [ctl]+[printscreen] to copy the entire desktop to your clipboard and then paste into WORD or other program of your choice.

On a Mac you can use [shift][apple][3] to copy your screen to the clipboard and then paste into a program, or use [command][shift][apple][4] to select part of the screen to the clipboard. Mac users can also use the GRAB utility under Applications —> Utilities.
