Time Narration
00:00 Welcome to this Spoken Tutorial of LibreOffice Impress - Printing a Presentation.
00:07 In this tutorial, we will learn about the various options for printing -
00:12 Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline.
00:17 Here we are using: GNU/Linux as our operating system and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00:26 There are times when you would need to print hard copies of your presentation.
00:30 For example, you may want to give copies of your presentation to your audience for later reference.
00:36 So first, let us open our presentation 'Sample Impress'.
00:41 To take prints of your slides, click on File and Print. Alternately, we can press Ctrl and 'P' keys together.
00:50 To know about the settings under General and Options tabs,
00:54 please see the tutorial on Viewing and printing Documents in the LibreOffice Writer series.
01:01 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, we see various options which are unique to Impress.
01:09 These options allow us to take prints of our slides in the desired format -
01:14 Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline. We will choose the Slides option.
01:21 Now, let's click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
01:26 Here you can choose the parts of the slide that you want to print, the print colours and the size.
01:33 Under Contents, let’s select Slide name, Date and time and Hidden pages.
01:40 As the text describes, these will print the name of the slide, the date and time and hidden pages, if any.
01:48 Then under Color, let’s select Grayscale.
01:52 As the text describes, the other options will print the slide in its original colour or in black-and-white.
01:59 And under Size, let’s select "Fit to printable page". You can explore the other size options in the LibreOffice Impress tab on your own.
02:09 Depending on the purpose for which you are taking the prints, various options are available in the Page Layout tab.
02:17 Let’s say, you want to have a number of slides in the same page of the printout.
02:22 So, select Pages per sheet. By default, it prints 1 slide per page.
02:28 Here is a small preview of the page.
02:32 Click on the drop-down arrow and choose the number of pages that you want to print per page.
02:38 If we choose 2 then in the preview, we can see 2 pages. If we choose 6 then in the preview, we can see 6 pages.
02:47 Checking 'Draw a border around each page' option, creates a black border around each page while printing.
02:55 This makes the page look more attractive.
02:59 The next option Brochure allows us to print the slides as brochures, for easy binding.
03:06 However, in this case, we will not choose this option. You can explore this option on your own, later.
03:13 Ensure that all the check-boxes in the Options tab are unchecked.
03:18 These check-boxes are for special purposes which we will not discuss in this tutorial.
03:25 Now, click on the Print button.
03:28 If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
03:35 Next, let's learn about the Handout option. Click on File and Print.
03:41 And in the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose Handouts.
03:47 By default, there are 4 Slides per page and the default Order is 'Left to right, then down'. Leave these unchanged for this presentation.
03:57 In the LibreOffice Impress tab, you will find that the Size options are disabled.
04:04 This is because the size of the print is determined by the number of slides in the sheet and size of the sheet.
04:11 Now click on the Print button.
04:14 If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
04:20 Let's go to the first slide and click on the Notes tab.
04:24 Here we will type in a note - “This is a sample note”.
04:29 To print your notes which you typed for your slides, click on File and Print.
04:35 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose the Notes option.
04:41 Look at the preview page on the left. It shows the note you typed at the bottom of the slide.
04:48 Now click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
04:51 Notice that the Size options are not available when we print Notes.
04:57 Now, click on the Print button. If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
05:04 Lastly, to print the outline of the slides for quick reference during a presentation, click on File and Print.
05:13 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose the Outline option.
05:18 Look at the preview page on the left. It shows the outline or the sequence of your slides with the slide headings and sub-points.
05:27 Now, click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
05:31 Notice once again that Size options are not available when we print Outline.
05:37 Now, click on the Print button. If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
05:46 With this, we conclude this tutorial where we learnt about printing -
05:51 Slides, Handouts, Notes and, Outline.
05:56 Try this comprehension test assignment. Create a new presentation.
06:02 Print only the 2nd slide. Print the first four slides as a handout.
