Full-page browser capture with annotations, redaction, and image export files

Annotate the decision, not every detail

Use arrows, highlights, numbered callouts, and short text to show where attention is needed. Too many marks make a screenshot harder to scan and can hide the interface being reviewed.

Redact sensitive information

Blur or cover email addresses, customer names, order numbers, tokens, and internal URLs before sharing. Redaction should be applied to the exported pixels, not stored only as a removable overlay.

Select the right export format

PNG preserves text and interface edges. JPEG reduces large photographic pages. PDF is useful for multi-part captures, print review, and documents that need a consistent page size.

Keep an editable local history

When revisions are likely, save the editable capture locally before producing the final export. Use descriptive filenames and remove captures that contain data you no longer need.
