Here's how to screenshot on Chrome and other popular browsers. Tell me if this sounds familiar: you need to take a screenshot of a whole web page (or, at least, more than one small part of it), so a drag-and-snap screenshot is out. You also need to capture info "below the fold" (content that's only visible after you scroll), so that's another no to your usual screenshot method.  So how can you avoid the painful task of scrolling down a page at a time, capturing one window screenshot again and again, and then cobbling it all together at the end? Well, you could use a dedicated [screenshot app or a full-page browser extension](https://zapier.com/blog/best-screen-capture-tool/)—many of those are built for exactly this. But there's an even easier method that doesn't require installing anything: Chrome's built-in, full-page screenshot tool. Here's the short version of how to take a full page screenshot on Chrome (keep scrolling for a detailed version with screenshots): 1. With the web page open, press `command` + `option` + `I` (on Mac) or `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `I` (on Windows). 2. Then, press `command` + `shift` + `P` (on Mac) or `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `P` (on Windows). 3. In the search bar, immediately after the word _Run >_, type "screenshot." 4. Select **Capture full size screenshot**,** **and Chrome will automatically save a full page screenshot to your _Downloads_ folder. Note: This tool works best on text-heavy pages and won't necessarily work on web apps. After testing this tool with several different web apps, it seems to depend on the app. For example, in Google Docs, the tool will capture only the visible window, while on [Zapier](https://zapier.com/), it captures the entire length of the page. **Table of contents**:  - [How to take a full page screenshot on Chrome](#chrome) - [How to take a full page screenshot on Chrome with custom dimensions](#custom-dimensions) - [How to take a full page screenshot using other browsers](#other-browsers) ## How to take a full page screenshot on Chrome Google has to know that people are mishmashing screenshots together, so it's a real mystery why their built-in screenshot tool is hidden. But now that you know about it, check out how simple it is to get a full page screenshot using a few [keyboard shortcuts](https://zapier.com/blog/chrome-keyboard-shortcuts/). (These are the same instructions as above, just with some screenshots to help you visualize the process.) 1. With the web page open, press `command` + `option` + `I` (on Mac) or `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `I` (on Windows) to open Developer Tools. You can also do this by clicking the menu on your Chrome toolbar (`⋮`), then selecting **More Tools** > **Developer Tools**. 2. Next, press `command` + `shift` + `P` (on Mac) or `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `P` (on Windows). This will open Chrome's developer menu. 3. In the search bar, immediately after _Run >_, type "screenshot" for your command. 4. Select **Capture full size screenshot**. You can now find your full page screenshot in your _Downloads_ folder.  ## How to take a full page screenshot on Chrome with a custom size  The keyboard shortcut method is a great way to quickly capture a full page screenshot, but if you want to customize the size of your screenshot, you'll have to take a few more steps to get it. 1. Open developer tools in Chrome using the keyboard shortcut from before: `command` + `option` + `I` (on Mac) or `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `I` (on Windows). 2. Click the device toolbar, which looks like a phone on top of a tablet (or two rectangles overlapping), from the menu bar. This will open a responsive version of the web page. 3. Enter the custom width and height of your screenshot in the dimensions bar found directly above the responsive view of the web page. Alternatively, you can change the view using the dropdown menu (by default, this is set to _Responsive) _or by adjusting the zoom level. 4. Click the menu (`⋮`) in the dimensions bar, and select **Capture full size screenshot. ** Chrome will automatically download the full page. From there, you can crop your image or [add some pizazz](https://zapier.com/blog/screenshot-background/).  ## How to take a full page screenshot using other browsers If you want to screenshot an entire webpage not in Chrome, here's how to do it in other popular web browsers.
