          @CiaraNi At work, I make a lot of screenshots, highlight the part of interest and pass it on to someone else. The content is just an application running in a web browser. I would love to have a tool that would extract the content as formatted text, leaving the layout as it was.

            @CiaraNi It's very much the same with audio files. I have a 40 yr old system which produces fully satisfactory results, and my response to family members who tell me I 'need' a newer system to get best results, I tell them I have no intention of spending large sums to get results that only my dog can hear.

              @CiaraNi Maybe it’s not more pixels we need, but better stories. Resolution can’t rescue empty content.
