|-
||00.01
|| Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on '''Common Editing and Printing Functions''' in LibreOffice Draw.

|-
||00.08
|| In this tutorial, you will learn how to:
|-
||00.10
||Set margins for the Draw page
|-
||00.13
|| Insert page numbers, date and time
|-
||00.16
||Undo and Redo actions
|-
||00.18
||Rename a page
|-
||00.20
||And print a page

|-
||00.22
|| Here we are using Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.

|-
||00.33
|| Let’s open the file '''WaterCycle''' and select the page that has the '''WaterCycle '''diagram.

|-
||00.40
|| Let’s set '''Page Margins''' for this drawing.

|-
||00.44
|| Why are '''Page Margins''' necessary?
|-
||00.46
||'''Page Margins''' determine the space within which the objects will be placed inside a page.
|-
||00.43
||For example, we may need to print the drawing and file it.
|-
||00.57
||Margins ensure that there is adequate space on the sides,

|-
||01.01
|| so that a part of the figure is not cut or hidden when we print it.

|-
||01.07
|| Let’s set '''Page Margins''' and then print the '''WaterCycle''' drawing.

|-
||01.11
|| Let’s say the paper size that we will use to print this diagram, is not the standard size.

|-
||01.18
|| It has a '''Width '''of 20 cms and a '''Height '''of 20 cms.
|-
||01.23
||It also requires a '''Bottom '''margin of 1.5 cms.

|-
||01.29
|| To set these measurements, from the '''Main '''menu, select '''Format '''and click '''Page'''.

|-
||01.35
|| The '''Page Setup '''dialog box appears.

|-
||01.38
|| Select the '''Page '''tab.

|-
||01.41
|| In the '''Width '''field, enter the value “20” and in the '''Height '''field “20”.
|-
||01.47
||Under '''Margins''', in the '''Bottom '''field, enter 1.5.

|-
||01.54
|| To the right, you will see a preview of the Draw page.
|-
||01.58
||This preview displays the changes made to the Draw page.

|-
||02.02
|| Click '''OK'''.

|-
||02.04
|| How does the drawing look?
|-
||02.06
||It spills out of the page!
|-
||02.08
||This also means that a part of the drawing will be lost when it is printed.

|-
||02.14
|| You must ensure that:
|-
||02.15
|| The drawings are always within the margins.
|-
||02.18
||When you draw no part of the Drawing spills out of the margin.

|-
||02.23
|| Therefore, it is a good practice to set up the page margins before you begin your drawing.

|-
||02.29
|| Again, from the '''Main '''menu, select '''Format '''and click '''Page'''.

|-
||02.35
|| The '''Page Setup '''dialog box appears.

|-
||02.38
|| Click on the '''Page '''tab.

|-
||02.40
|| Click the '''Format '''drop-down list and select '''A4'''.

|-
||02.45
|| This is the original margin that we had set.

|-
||02.48
|| Click '''OK'''.

|-
||02.52
|| The drawing is placed within the margins.

|-
||02.55
|| You can also access the '''Page setup''' dialog box from the Draw page,

|-
||03.00
||By right-clicking on the page and using the '''Context '''menu.

|-
||03.05
|| Let’s click '''Cancel '''and exit the dialog box.

|-
||03.09
|| Now, let us insert page numbers, date, time and the author’s name.

|-
||03.15
|| Let us select the page with the '''WaterCycle '''diagram and insert a page number.

|-
||03.21
|| Go to the '''Main '''menu, select '''Insert''' and click '''Fields'''.

|-
||03.27
|| The list of '''Fields '''is displayed.

|-
||03.31
|| '''Fields '''contain values that are automatically generated by Draw.

|-
||03.35
|| We simply have to insert a '''Field '''and the value''' '''generated by Draw.

|-
||03.41
|| Let us click on '''Page number'''.

|-
||03.43
|| A text box with the number 1 is inserted on the Draw page.

|-
||03.48
|| Let’s adjust the size of this text box and make it a little smaller.

|-
||03.55
|| Now, let us drag the box and place it at the bottom right corner of the page.

|-
||04.01
|| To move the number box smoothly, select the number box and press the '''Shift '''key.
|-
||04.07
||Now let’s move it further down.

|-
||04.11
|| Let’s check if the next number has been inserted on page two of this Draw file.

|-
||04.17
|| It does not have a page number!

|-
||04.20
|| The page number is inserted only in the page where we inserted the field!

|-
||04.26
|| Now let’s learn how to change the page number format.

|-
||04.30
|| From the '''Main '''menu, click on '''Format''' and select '''Page'''.

|-
||04.36
|| The '''Page''' '''Setup''' dialog box appears.

|-
||04.39
|| Click on the '''Page '''tab.

|-
||04.41
|| Under the '''Layout''' '''settings''', select '''Format'''.

|-
||04.45
|| From the drop-down list select a,b,c.
|-
||04.49
||Click '''OK'''.

|-
||04.52
|| The page numbering has changed from 1, 2, 3 to a, b, c.
|-
|| 04.58
||Likewise, you can change it to any format.

|-
||05.01
|| Let’s learn how to insert Date and Time fields.

|-
||05.05
|| You can also insert '''Date '''and '''Time '''stamps on your Draw page.
|-
||05.10
||You can do so by clicking on '''Insert '''and '''Fields'''.

|-
||05.14
|| One is '''Date '''('''fixed''') and '''Time '''('''fixed''').

|-
||05.18
|| The other is '''Date '''('''variable''') and '''Time '''('''variable''').

|-
||05.23
|| The '''Date (fixed) '''and '''Time (fixed) '''options insert the current date and time.

|-
||05.29
||These date and time values will not be updated.

|-
||05.33
|| The '''Date (variable) '''and '''Time (variable) '''options on the other hand,

|-
||05.37
||Are automatically updated as and when you open the file.

|-
||05.42
|| Let’s insert the''' Time (variable) '''here.

|-
||05.46
|| Now, let us drag the box and place it above the page number at the bottom right corner of the page.

|-
||05.56
|| The time inserted will be updated to the current time whenever you open the Draw page.

|-
||06.03
|| Let us now enter the name of the author who has created this file.
|-
||06.08
||Here, we shall setup the author’s name, on page one, as “Teacher. A. B.”

|-
||06.17
|| So let’s go to Page one.

|-
|| 06.19
|| Go to the '''Main '''menu, select '''Tools''' and click '''Options'''.

|-
||06.24
|| The '''Options''' dialog box appears.

|-
||06.27
|| In the '''Options''' dialog box, click on '''LibreOffice''', and then click on '''User''' '''Data'''.

|-
||06.34
|| On the right side of the dialog box, you can enter the user data information.

|-
||06.40
|| You can enter the details here as per your requirements.

|-
||06.44
|| In the '''First'''/'''Last''' '''Name'''/'''Initials''', let’s enter the text '''Teacher''', '''A''', and '''B''' respectively.

|-
||06.53
|| Click '''OK'''.

|-
||06.55
|| Now, from the '''Main '''menu, click '''Insert''', select '''Fields''' and click '''Author'''.

|-
||07.02
|| The name '''Teacher A B '''is inserted in a text-box.

|-
||07.07
|| Let’s drag this box and place it just above the '''Time '''field at the bottom right corner of the Draw page.

|-
||07.15
|| Now, what if we want to remove the fields we inserted in the Draw page?

|-
||07.21
|| Simply select the text box and press '''Delete '''key.

|-
||07.25
|| Let’s delete the field '''Author Name.'''

|-
||07.28
|| And what if we want to undo this action?

|-
||07.31
|| Simple, you can undo any action by pressing CTRL and Z keys together.

|-
||07.38
|| The action that was last executed, that is, the deletion of the '''Author''' field, is undone.

|-
||07.45
|| field is visible again.

|-
||07.48
|| We can undo or redo actions from the '''Main '''menu too.

|-
||07.53
|| From the '''Main '''menu, select '''Edit''' and click '''Redo'''.

|-
||07.57
|| The '''Author’s '''name is no longer visible!

|-
||08.00
|| Let’s press the CTRL+Z keys and undo all the field insertions we made.

|-
||08.06
|| You can also use short cut keys from the key board for the undo and redo commands.
|-
||08.13
|| Press the CTRL and Z keys together to undo an action.
|-
||08.18
|| Press the CTRL and Y keys together to redo an action.

|-
||08.23
|| Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
|-
||08.26
|| Change the Author’s name and Save it.
|-
||08.29
||Now add two more arrows to the page.
|-
||08.33
|| Insert a page number and date on page two.
|-
||08.38
||Now undo and redo the last five actions.
|-
||08.42
|| Check if the '''Undo '''and '''Redo '''options undo all the actions or if some actions cannot be undone.

|-
||08.51
|| Let’s name this page “'''WaterCycleSlide'''”.

|-
||08.54
|| Select the slide in the Pages pane,right-click and select '''Rename Page'''.

|-
||09.00
|| The '''Rename Slide''' dialog box appears.

|-
||09.03
|| In the '''Name '''field, let us enter the name '''WaterCycleSlide'''”.
|-
||09.08
||Click '''OK'''.

|-
||09.10
|| Now, let’s place the cursor over this page.

|-
||09.14
||Can you see the name “'''WaterCycleSlide” '''displayed here?

|-
||09.18
|| It is a good practice to assign a name that is relevant to the page.

|-
||09.23
|| Now, let’s set printing options and print the '''WaterCycle '''diagram.

|-
|| 09.28
|| In the '''Main '''menu, click '''File '''then click '''Print'''.

|-
||09.33
||The '''Print '''dialog box appears.

|-
||09.36
|| To know about the settings under '''General '''and '''Options '''tabs,

|-
||09.41
|| Please see the tutorial on '''Viewing and printing Documents''' in the '''LibreOffice Writer''' series.

|-
||09.48
|| On the left side you will see the page preview area.

|-
||09.53
|| The right side of the “'''Print'''”''' dialog box comprises four tabs:
|-
||09.58
|| General, LibreOffice Draw,Page Layout,Options

|-
||10.04
|| Let’s look at the options specific to LibreOffice Draw.

|-
||10.09
|| Click on the '''LibreOffice Draw '''tab.

|-
||10.13
|| Let’s check the boxes '''Page name''' and '''Date and Time'''.
|-
||10.17
||This will print the page name, date and time along with the drawing.

|-
||10.23
|| Let us select '''Original colors '''and '''Fit to printable page '''to print the drawing.

|-
||10.29
|| Click on '''Print''' to print the '''WaterCycle''' drawing from your computer.

|-
||10.34
|| If you have configured your printer correctly, then your drawing should begin printing now.

|-
||10.40
|| This brings us to the end of this tutorial on LibreOffice Draw.
