How to convert a PDF ID document to an image to be uploaded into Mi-Gateway

  2. In your start menu type “snipping tool” (without inverted commas) and select the Snipping Tool application.Snipping tool Search
  3. This will bring up a small snipping tool window.PDF with Snipping tool
  4. In the Snipping Tool toolbar, select “New”. This will dim your display.
  5. Now drag you mouse cursor from the top left, to the bottom right of the ID image and then release your mouse button.Snip of a snipping
