Software Update: Snagit 2023.0.0

TechSmith is as usual early and has already released version 2023 of Snagit. With this program, that for both Windows if macOS available, images, text, moving images and web pages can be captured and edited.

The screenshots can be saved as images or imported directly into various programs such as Word and PowerPoint. Below you can find which improvements TechSmith has made in version 2023.
