Learning the Basics
Using the keyboard
To capture a print screen of the entire screen, press the
Fn + PRTSC key.
To capture only the active window displayed, press
Fn + ALT while
simultaneously pressing the PRTSC key.

Character keys
Typing with the character keys is very much like typing on a
typewriter, except that:
❖ The space bar creates a space character instead of just passing
over an area of the page.
❖ The lowercase letter l (el) and the number 1 are not
interchangeable.
❖ The uppercase letter O and the number 0 are not
interchangeable.
Ctrl, Fn, and Alt keys

The
Ctrl, Fn, and Alt keys do different things depending on the
program you are using. For more information, see your program
documentation.
Function keys
The function keys (not to be confused with the Fn key) are the 12
keys at the top of the keyboard.
