You'd have to pause the film where you want it, go fullscreen, then press the PrintScreen key on your keyboard.  That will copy it to your buffer, then you can paste it into a paint program or Word document or whatever.

You may need to use alt-printscreen.

Did you paste from the windows clipboard to a paint program?

Assuming you have Windows, open paint and select "paste". If you use a different OS maybe someone else will respond.

Using AH film viewer.  Find the pictue you want.  Remember to turn off icons (if you want a clean picture) and to go to full screen.

Copy picture by pressing alt & print screen.

Open MS Paint (or other image program).

Press CTL & V.  That'll put the image you just had into MS Paint.

Save as.....

Done.
