QScreenCatcher

Introduction

A simple screen capturing software that can capture the screen and export as PDF via shortcuts. I developed QScreenCatcher to provide an efficient and silent screenshotting solution. I wanted to create a tool that is straightforward to use, with a focus on seamless capturing and saving. The app is powered by Python and PyQt, enabling cross-platform development.

Preview

Some key features QScreenCatcher has implemented:

  • Configurable hotkey ("V" default) to screenshot active windows
  • Temporary screenshot storage during captures
  • Export pictures to PDF after stopping capture
  • Auto-copy PDFs to clipboard
  • Customizable settings (hotkeys, save locations, etc.)

With QScreenCatcher, you can quickly document your work, meetings, tutorials, or anything currently shown on your screen.

Setup

Directly download the release version and run.

Instructions

  1. Download and run the software
  2. Press Start to begin capturing, press Stop and save to end capturing, see the software GUI for details. (Very easy to use)

Additional Info

Screenshots and settings files are saved to: ".\data"
