01

Before you begin

Tejumo records actions on Windows and creates draft instructions with screenshots. Automatically generated steps are a starting point, not a finished manual. Check them against the actual screens and actions, and make any necessary corrections before sharing.

02

Find your way around the home screen

The Unorganized flows area at the top contains flows not yet assigned to a category. Manual structure below shows flows organized into categories. Drag flows between these two areas.

1. Record a new flow

   Select ＋ Record new flow at the top.

2. Open an existing flow

   Double-click a flow, or right-click it and choose Open in editor. Use the search field to find an unorganized flow by name.

3. Understand the inbox order

   Unorganized flows are sorted by most recently updated, then most recently created when update times match. Their order cannot be changed manually.

4. Focus on one manual

   Select a top-level category from the Manual structure dropdown. Choose Show all to see everything again.

03

Record your actions

1. Name the flow

   Open ＋ Record new flow and enter a flow name, such as “Register a request”. A name is required and may contain up to 100 characters.

2. Choose the recording area

   Select Full screen or Select area. For a selected area, follow the prompt, drag over the screen, and choose Use this area. Press Esc to cancel area selection.

3. Start recording

   Select Start recording, review the five-minute recording notice and confirm. The main window hides and a small recording controller displays the time remaining. Drag a non-button area of the controller if it is in the way.

4. Work in the target app

   Carry out the actions you want to explain. Tejumo records interaction details and screenshots at relevant moments. After a screen changes, wait for it to settle before continuing. Very rapid actions may reduce the accuracy of captured steps and images.

5. Stop or cancel

   Choose Stop recording when finished. Recording also stops automatically after five minutes and creates steps from the actions captured so far. Choose Cancel recording to discard the recording.

04

Review and edit the generated steps

The editor shows the step list on the left and the selected step’s heading, description and image on the right. Target names and screen descriptions may be misidentified; compare them with the real task.

1. Check the flow name

   Edit Flow name at the top if needed. It cannot be empty.

2. Review each step

   Select a step and correct its heading and description. Every step needs a heading.

3. Adjust the number and order of steps

   Use ＋ and － to add or remove steps. Reorder them with ↑, ↓ or drag-and-drop. Remove unnecessary clicks and add missing explanations.

4. Save your changes

   Select Save changes. Confirm that saving completes before returning Home.

05

Replace and annotate images

Select Replace image to choose a recorded screenshot, capture a new area, or use a PNG, JPEG or WebP file. Clear image makes the step text-only.

1. Replace an image

   Choose the replacement method. For a new capture, follow the prompt, drag an area and confirm with Use this area. Review the captured image, then confirm its use.

2. Add text and shapes

   Select Edit image. Choose text or a shape: rectangle, ellipse, line, filled shape, star, target, arrow or block arrow. Change color, line style and thickness where available. Use Select / Move to reposition an object. The text editor offers bold, size and color. Select an unwanted object and press Backspace or Delete to remove it.

3. Hide sensitive areas

   Mask covers an area in solid black. Mosaic pixelates it. Check that the intended information is fully covered before sharing.

4. Apply and save

   Select Apply image edits, then Save changes in the manual editor. Replaced or cleared images must also be saved.

06

Build chapters with categories

1. Create a top-level category

   In Manual structure, select ＋ Category. Enter a name of up to 50 characters and an optional description. Category descriptions are included in exported manuals.

2. Add child categories

   Right-click a category and select Create subcategory…. You can nest categories up to five levels. For example: Equipment request guide → Submit a request → Register an equipment request.

3. Organize your flows

   Drag a flow from Unorganized flows into a category. Drag it back to return it to the inbox. Within Manual structure, drag categories and flows to change their order, or use the right-click actions Move up and Move down.

4. Edit a category

   Right-click it and select Edit category… to change its name or description.

07

Protect a finished manual

Right-click a completed top-level category and choose Protect. Categories and flows beneath it cannot be edited, moved or deleted. Choose Remove protection when changes are needed. Protected manuals can still be viewed and exported.

Deleting a flow or category permanently removes its associated recordings and images. This cannot be undone. Make a backup first if you may need the data later.

08

Export an HTML or PDF manual

For a single flow, select Manual export settings in the editor. For a whole manual, right-click its top-level category and choose Manual export settings. Child categories are included in the top-level export.

1. Choose the format

   Select HTML for viewing in a browser, or PDF for printing and distribution.

2. Choose the page layout

   For HTML, choose One page or Pages by category. With category pages, adjust the page breaks to keep a category on its parent page or give it a separate page. For PDF, choose automatic breaks or category-based breaks, then select which categories start a new page. Long content still breaks automatically. Without eligible child categories, PDF uses automatic breaks.

3. Adjust the appearance

   Choose whether to show the contents, the heading-band color and the image display size. HTML offers Standard, Simple and Document templates. PDF uses a shared layout without template selection. Select Open preview to see the actual result.

4. Export and save

   Select Export manual (HTML) or Export manual (PDF) and choose a save location. Single-page HTML is saved as an HTML file; category-based HTML as a ZIP file; PDF as one PDF file.

Settings, backups and help

Open the three-line Menu button at the top right of Home. Choose Settings, Data management or Help and about Tejumo.

1. Choose a language

   Open Settings, select Japanese or English and apply. This changes the app interface and the language used for newly generated headings and descriptions. Existing text is not translated automatically. The User guide and Official website links also open in the selected language. The contact page remains in Japanese.

2. Adjust step detail

   Move the slider from 0% to 100% and apply. The default is 50%. Lower values tend to combine related actions; higher values tend to retain more individual actions. Some workflows show little or no difference when this changes. It controls how recordings are organized, not recognition accuracy.

Back up and restore

Open Data management. Create a backup to save categories, flows and recording images in a ZIP. Use it before major changes or to move to another PC. To restore, select the ZIP created by Tejumo without extracting it. Restoring replaces the current data at the destination, so review the confirmation carefully.

Help and app information

Help and about Tejumo opens the user guide, contact page and official site. It also shows the app version, privacy policy, terms of use and third-party library licenses.
