I want to scroll through doc pages in a script loop doing a screenshot for each page eg the procedure would be:

1. Display the first page of the doc you want to screenshot.

2. Hit CTRL-PrtScrn (say) to start the script loop.

    The script does a screenshot of the current screen.
The Right Arrow or PageDn key is sent from the script to advance the doc to the next page.
    The script continues to loop . .

3. The script is stopped by CTRL-C (say).

Is this possible?  Should I be trying to do this from Sway?

What file format is your document?


A proprietary one which isn't easily convertible.


Couldn't you "just" export pages to
another (image) format?


No.


IOW, why do you want to make *screenshots*?


To OCR them to text to create multi-page PDFs.

Thanks,

Phil.
