Alan,
What you can do is the following: just type command-shift-3 and you will
here the sound of a snap shot of your desktop. An image of your destop
will be saved probably as a file called picture in your hard drive.
You can open this file with SimpleText and use regular cut and paste part
of this picture to any software, or you open it with any
graphic/multimedia software where you can invert the black background of
your plots to white and do any other modification.

Good Luck,
Christian
