If that is all you need to do once in a while, just take a picture of the window. Be warned however, that you cannot recover any of the number values with a drag, copy, and paste as you woud be able to do inmost word processors and spreadsheets. You will have the picture of a number but you would have to go through character recognition. I believe that the easy way is to buy Acrobat. That just is expensive for a one shot need.
