How to save the free nutrition facts panel?
A number of users of the free nutrition facts labeling tool have asked me how to save the created panels.
If you would like to incorporate the nutrition facts panel to another document, the best way is probably to print it to pdf format. You can then open the file in Acrobat Reader or another software that reads pdf files and from there cut & paste it or use it in any other way. This is a better solution than taking a screenshot, as you won’t lose in resolution.
If you work on a Macintosh, the “Print to pdf” function is built-in. On Windows, a number of free (and not free) tools will allow you to do that. For example, see the list of pdf software on Wikipedia.
If you want to share the way you are using the free tool to create nutrition facts panels, leave a comment below.

Once the label shows up you can use the “Snipping Tool” from Microsoft. It allows you to select a rectangular box and save whatever is in it as an image file. Search google for it.

Discouraged user: this can happen if you have used the back button of your browser. It is just a display problem. You can fix it easily by switching the display once between “actual value” and “percent”, and back.

Oput,
You could try the snipping tool (see a few comments above) and add the nutrition panel to word in image form.

Kisha,
Not at the time being, but I will add this feature as time allows.

Here’s another vote for a way to incorporate a list of ingredients AND it would be delightful to have a suggestion for software to help print/layout a sheet of labels. Trying to customize labels in MS Word is mind-bending and terribly aggravating…

Votes for the ability to include the name of the recipe, list the ingredients, and to save data label as jpg.
