iPad – Efficiently Transfer Screenshots from iPad to Windows Computer

iosipadms officescreen capturewindows

I write a Word documents on a windows 10 computer and want to include screenshots from my iPad. Idea is to make something on my iPad, take a screenshot and directly paste it in my word document. I can connect the iPad via cable to my windows computer or access the iPad on the network from my windows computer.

Is there any comfortable way to get a taken screenshot in my windows clipboard, so I can easily paste it into my Word document?

Apple solves this problem with cloud sync and so does Microsoft. That would be the easiest way to set up a group of people with this in my experience. Even for one person, it works well for me so I can avoid pairing the iOS device with windows USB for ingestion of images in bulk. Also, the Files app on iPad is very good, you can save to USB and natively connect to all manner of sync services online for file transfer and sync.

Also the iOS OneDrive and Teams apps are pretty awesome for file transfer and sync. Even with handoff, clipboard sync of images can be troublesome on macOS so I would look for a different workflow if possible.
