I’m a newbie. I installed CS3 yesterday evening. Can you tell me how to open the file my Print Screen key produces? I tried File/New and it showed the clipboard and I clicked to open but it was blank white.

Thank you, Michael

On a PC,
CTRL + N gives you a new document
CTRL + V pastes the content of the clipboard into that document
