receive from the user the selection of the target image from the plurality of screenshot images based on the calculated durations.

9. The electronic device according to claim 7, wherein to generate the plurality of screenshot image, the processor is further directed to:

perform a screenshot to the target file to generate a plurality of candidate images;

calculate an average luminance value of the plurality of candidate images; and

determine the plurality of candidate images as the plurality of screenshot images when the average luminance value is greater than a luminance threshold; and

perform another screenshot to the target file again when the average luminance value is less than the luminance threshold.

10. The electronic device according to claim 7, wherein when the target image is of a high resolution, the ink is associated with an image generated by the image interface server by lowering the resolution of the target image.

11. The electronic device according to claim 7, wherein the resolution comprises a resolution of the corresponding image;

and

each of the plurality of screenshot images of different resolutions are obtained by converting an image with a high resolution to the resolution corresponding to the screenshot image.
