If you are a widget-type programmer, my routine WINDOW_TO_FILE.PRO
may be useful. You just need the window ID, and you can save the
contents of the window to a file, in various formats (TIFF, GIF, BMP,
PICT). You can also print to the default printer.
You can download this via anonymous ftp from:
bial8.ucsd.edu : pub/software/idl/share/idl_share.tar.gz
There is also a .doc file that explains the usage.
Hope this helps.
