Taking a screen clipping
To capture part of an open window on your computer as a screenshot, take a screen clipping. For example, you can capture part of a webpage or application screen in a screen clipping to preserve it in a OneNote 2013 note or take notes about it.
Before you begin, display the item that you want to capture on your screen. For example, to capture part of a webpage, display the webpage in your browser. Then, switch to OneNote and take the screen clipping.
