Couldn't you screen capture it? I learned how to do that about 5 months ago and have been cutting and pasteing up a storm. I use GraphicConverter for the Mac to do it.

Book II has a built-in screen capture function (default keystroke "p"), just to make things easier.

Excellent, hopefully its in a format regular windows can open. When games have that feature I am much more prone to take screenies being its less work.

I pressed the "Print Screen" key, but when I pasted it to Paint all I got was a completely black 800x600 image. Perhaps it is because I am using OpenGL, perhaps it is because I am in Windows 7...

Because, if so, that is a welcome development in Book II's engine, as I often wished I could scroll the Narrative text in Book I.

Actually, you
can.
Just press the gold arrows to the left of the Narrative Text area.
OMG, I so did
not realize those were arrows before now!
I thought they were just decorative fringe that BW had put in there!!
Ha ha! Guess you still learn new things about this game, even after a dozen+ times of playing it!
Thanks a bunch for this, King_ov!!

You're welcome a bunch for that, IJ!!

Yes, it was because I chose OpenGL.
Now I took a test screenshot in DirectX and everything went fine.
