Hi all,
As the subject says - I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to print off approx 8 - 12 positions on a page. They would be positions from my own games with a tactical motif. Basically set up the position on the analysis board, save it and I guess import it to ms word or something??
I'm interested in something very basic and the positions do not need to be in high res colour or jpeg format etc.
Just something basic where you can tell the difference between light and dark squares and Black and White pieces.
Thoughts and ideas appreciated 🏼
I assume you use Windows when you want to import positions to MS Word.
Go to the Lichess analysis board, set up the position and press the key combination Ctrl - Print. Then open a graphics program (MS Paint will do) and press Ctrl - V which will paste an image of the screen into the programme. Now mark the chess diagramme with your mouse and press Ctrl - C. This puts an image of the diagramme into the Windows clipboard. Finally open MS word and press Ctrl - V. This pastes the diagramme into MS Word and you can adjust it to the size you want.
I think most PCs have the Snipping Tool preinstalled. With this tool you can create pictures of the positions you want to print. Then just copy them over to a word page or whatever program you wanne use, and print it.
Yep. The snipping tool is your friend. Look for it in the search box bottom left on a Windiz PC.
Building off of what #3 said, assuming you use windows:
Load up the position in the analysis board, and you can press "WINDOWS KEY + SHIFT + S" and drag your mouse to the diagonal corners of the board (eg. top left corner of the board to bottom right). Doing this will automatically copy the screenshot, so all you need to do is to paste it onto a Google Doc or MS Word. This is how I would go about doing it.
You can organize such things perfectly using ChessBase. Diagram lists and so on.

I use Chess base, I didn't realise I could do that. Thanks and thanks to everyone else for their help 🏼
