See that button labelled PrtScr or something similar on your keyboard? Press it while you see the puzzle on your screen. Then go to MS Paint or some other image editor on your computer and paste (Ctrl+V). There you go.

This has nothing to do with "copying" PDF files, which you can also do just like you copy other kinds of files.

I am sorry as you can paste the files but it cannot be edited. Only open option is use Image printer or Editor. Image printer is fast but unless the lines are drawn as continuous one you have to redraw the lines. I have not tried Image editor. If the puzzle authors take note of this I hope more people who do not have printing facilities will also participate.

You are doing it wrong. There is no copying needed. There are instructions here on how to take a screenshot on different kinds of devices/OSs.

Taking a screenshot and pasting it to paint are not the issues. How to edit the image.

Every time I solve, I always solve with Paint by copying a screenshot of the puzzle and pasting it to Paint. I always get full lines. Try using that method instead?

try to take a screenshot I hope this will help you https://www.take-screenshot.com/
