Copying Images

  You can copy an image while leaving the original image
  intact.  You can then paste the image onto the canvas.

  Paint can paste graphic images but not text.

  To copy an image in the same window:

  1.  Select the image.

  2.  Choose Quick Copy from the Edit menu.

      Paint puts a copy of the image on the canvas, leaving it
      selected.

  3.  Position the pointer in the selected image and drag it to
      the desired location on the screen.

  To copy an image for use in another window:

  1.  Select the image.

  2.  Choose Copy for the Edit menu.
      Paint copies the image to the clipboard.

  3.  Choose Paste from the Edit menu.

      Paint puts a copy of the image on the canvas, leaving it
      selected.  A copy of the image remains in the clipboard.

  To cancel the selection, click on another tool or select another
  image.

  To copy a selection to the clipboard without leaving a copy of
  it in the original location, choose Cut from the Edit menu.
