 <p class="lead magick-description">Use the <code>import</code> program to capture some or all of an X server screen and save the image to a file. <code>import</code> captures the window selected by clicking or program argument. See <a href="command-line-processing.html">Command Line Processing</a> for advice on how to structure your <code>import</code> command or see below for example usages of the command.</p>

 <h2 class="magick-post-title"><a class="anchor" id="usage"></a>Example Usage</h2>

 <p>We list a few examples of the <code>import</code> command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use.  To get started, lets import an image of an X11 window in the JPEG format:</p>

 <pre class="highlight"><code>magick import rose.jpg
 </code></pre>

 <p>To capture the entire X server screen in the Postscript image format:</p>

 <pre class="highlight"><code>magick import -window root screen.ps
 </code></pre>

 <p>You can find additional examples of using <code>import</code> in <a href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-graf/?ca=dnt-428">Graphics from the Command Line</a>.  Further discussion is available in  <a href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-graf2/?ca=dgr-lnxw15GraphicsLine">More Graphics from the Command Line</a> and <a href="../Usage/">Examples of ImageMagick Usage</a>.</p>


 <h2 class="magick-post-title"><a class="anchor" id="options"></a>Option Summary</h2>

 <p>The <code>import</code> command recognizes these options.  Click on an option to get more details about how that option works.</p>
