PNG tips

PNG works best for digital tables and lossless exports.

Capture at normal zoom

Avoid tiny zoom levels that make numbers hard to read. Increase browser zoom before capturing if the table is dense.

Keep the full header row

Include column names whenever possible so the exported Excel file is easier to review.

Use JPG for camera photos

PNG is ideal for screenshots. JPG is usually more natural for phone photos of printed tables.

Extension shortcut

You may not need to save a PNG at all.

When the table is already visible in Chrome, Select area captures the visible table directly and keeps you in the review-before-export flow.
