00:00 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on LibreOffice Impress - Creating a presentation document and basic formatting.
00:09 In this tutorial we will learn about the parts of the Impress window and how to:Insert slides,Copy slides, About Fonts and Formating a fonts.
00:21 Here we are using GNU Linux as our operating system and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00:30 Lets open our presentation “Sample Impress” that we created in the previous tutorial.
00:36 Lets take a tour of what is on the screen.
00:40 In the centre, we see the ‘Workspace’, which is our working area.
00:44 As you can see, the “Workspace” has 5 tabs called the “View buttons”.
00:50 Currently the “Normal” tab is selected.
00:53 This is the main view for creating individual slides.
00:56 The “Outline” view shows topic titles, bulleted and numbered lists for each slide in outline format.
01:03 The “Notes” view lets you add notes to each slide that are not seen when the presentation is shown.
01:10 The “Handout” view allows to print the slides for a handout.
01:14 Here we can choose the number of slides that we want to print per page.
01:19 The “Slide Sorter” view shows thumbnails of the slides.
01:23 Lets click on the “Normal” view button again.
01:26 On the left hand side of the screen, you see the “Slides” pane. It contains ‘thumbnails’ of the slides in the presentation.
01:35 On the right hand side, you see the “Tasks” pane, which has 5 sections.
01:41 The Layouts section has pre-packaged layouts.
01:44 We can use these directly or modify them as per our requirements.
