I would like to take a full screen shot of a web page but scroll down to the page as well. i have downloaded paparazzi which seemed to be recommanded but I am not satisfied with what it does any other suggestion to get a clear picture of the page???
Command + Shift + 3
File will be located in Finder.
Use cmd/⬆/4 (All held down at same time) to take snap of any part of screen
It changes the mouse curser to a target (with coordinates) which you can drag across any part of the screen to take a .jpg image saved to your desktop
cmd/⬆/3 to take full screen image
You can also use QuickTime to record your screen to a .mov movie
Simply launch QT go to the File menu . Select New Screen Recording and a small widget is launch allowing you to record the screen or just a small part
There is no need for those third party applications as its all built in to OSx out the box.
I also use Command Shift 4 for simple window captures. It is especially handy when you press the space bar and get the Camera cursor which will capture whatever window it's over without manually dragging a selection box.
However, I don't think it will capture a full browser window (scrolling window) that is bigger than the screen.
It's sometimes better if you can get the full page in one image rather than, window shot 1, scroll, window shot 2, scroll, window shot 3, etc. (Then paste and merge in a Photo editing App. 😐 )

That's why i suggest the use of QT to record screen whilst scrolling it does exactly what the op wants.
Hmm, I took "full screen shot of a web page" to mean a picture, not a movie.
my bad
Well if you want to scroll down its got to be a movie hasn't it ?
Its a screen capture "movie"
Hi Keith,
It doesn't have to be a movie. Snagit, for example can capture the complete browser window as an image which you can then save as a png, jpg, tiff, gif, bmp or snagit document. That's what I thought the OP wanted so I didn't suggest the built in screen captures.
Take care,
ivan
(To Philo9, I saved this with 80% quality, so it's not the best. You can save as full quality, png or tiff to get better than this. Click on it to see it full size.)
If the page is too long for a screenshot, I usually use Save to PDF; it may not copy all the ads, but it has what I'm interested in (i.e. the entire order I just placed including phone numbers, etc).
how can i take a full screen shot of a web page without using paparazzi?
