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 formatting of fonts. |
00:21 | Here we are using GNU Linux as our operating system and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4. |
00:30 | Let's open our presentation “Sample Impress” that we created in the previous tutorial. |
00:36 | Let's 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 | Let's 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. |
01:49 | We should see each of these sections in detail as we progress through the tutorial series. |
01:55 | Now, let's learn how to insert a slide. Select the second slide, in the “Slides” pane, by clicking on it. |
02:02 | Now we click on Insert and Slide. |
02:06 | We see that a new blank slide has been inserted after the second slide. |
02:11 | To add a title to the slide, click on the text bar that says Click to add Title. |
02:18 | Now, type: "Short Term Strategy" and click outside the text-box. |
02:24 | So, a title can be added in this way. |
02:27 | There are two ways in which we can make a copy of a slide. |
02:31 | Let’s look at the first way- Click on Insert and Duplicate Slide. |
02:36 | We can see that a new duplicate slide has been inserted after the one we created in the previous step. |
02:43 | Alternately, go to the slide sorter view by clicking on the Slide Sorter tab in the “Workspace” pane. |
02:51 | Now, copy the 7th slide by right-clicking on it and selecting Copy from the context menu. |
02:58 | Right-click on the last slide and select Paste. |
03:02 | Select After and click OK. |
03:05 | You have now created a copy of the slide at the end of the presentation! |
03:11 | Now, let’s look at fonts and some of the ways that you can format fonts. |
03:16 | Select the slide titled Long term goal by double-clicking on it. |
03:21 | Click on the Body text-box and select all the text. Now delete it. |
03:27 | Now, type the following: "Reduce cost, Reduce dependence on few vendors, Develop customized applications". |
03:38 | Changing the font type and font size are the same as in LibreOffice Writer documents. |
03:44 | Select a line of text. In the Text Format tool bar, change the Font type from “Albany” to “Arial Black” |
03:53 | and the font-size from “32” to “40”. |
03:57 | Click anywhere outside the text-box. |
04:00 | Notice that the font has changed. |
04:03 | We can also change the font by clicking on Format in the main menu and the Character option. |
04:10 | This opens up a dialog-box in which we can set the Font, Style and Size as per our requirement. |
04:17 | Let's close this dialog-box. |
04:20 | To change the color of the font, we will choose the slide titled "Development up to present". |
04:26 | Click on the body text box and select all the text. |
04:31 | Click on the downward-arrow next to the font color icon and select the colour you want. |
04:38 | Click anywhere outside the text-box. |
04:41 | Notice the change in the colour. |
04:44 | Formatting like Bold, Italics and Underline are the same as in LibreOffice Writer documents. |
04:51 | Select the slide titled "Recommendations". |
04:54 | Click on the Body text-box and select a line of text. |
04:59 | Now click on the Bold, Italics and Underline icons. |
05:04 | Click anywhere outside the text-box. |
05:07 | Notice the change in the text. |
05:09 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
