00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on “Text tool features” using Inkscape. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn about: |
00:09 | * Manual kerning |
00:10 | * Spell checking |
00:12 | * Super-script |
00:13 | * Sub-script. |
00:15 | To record this tutorial, I am using: |
00:17 | Ubuntu Linux 12.04 OS |
00:20 | Inkscape version 0.48.4. |
00:24 | I will be recording this tutorial in maximum resolution mode. This is to accommodate all the tools that will be demonstrated. |
00:33 | Let us open Inkscape. |
00:35 | Earlier in the series, we learnt to create and format text using the Text tool. |
00:40 | Now, we will learn some important features of the Text tool. Click on it. |
00:45 | Let us start with Manual kerning. |
00:48 | Horizontal kerning, Vertical shift and Character rotation are called manual kerns. |
00:54 | Type the word “Spoken”. |
00:58 | Keep the cursor after the alphabet “S”. |
01:01 | Horizontal kerning adds space after the selected letter. |
01:05 | Click on the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the space between the letters “S” and “p”. |
01:13 | Notice that the space is introduced only between the letters “S” and “p”. |
01:19 | Let me keep the Horizontal kerning parameter as 3. |
01:24 | The next icon, i.e. Vertical shift, shifts the letters after the selected letter up or down. |
01:30 | Click on the up and down arrows. |
01:34 | Observe the letters after the cursor have shifted up and down. |
01:39 | Keep this parameter as 15. |
01:42 | Next, we will rotate our characters using Character rotation. |
01:47 | This icon rotates only a single character which is right after the cursor. |
01:51 | So, place the cursor before the letter “e”. |
01:55 | Click on the up and down arrows of Character rotation and observe that the letter “e” rotates. |
02:02 | To apply the kerns to more than one character, select the characters first then give the values. |
02:09 | Let me select the letters “p” and “o” and give Horizontal kerning parameter as 5, |
02:17 | Vertical shift parameter as 10 and |
02:21 | Character rotation parameter as 20. |
02:24 | Observe the changes. |
02:26 | To remove the kerns, go to Text menu. |
02:29 | Click on Remove Manual Kerns. |
02:32 | Manual Kerns can be used only in Regular text. |
02:35 | In Flowed text, these options will be disabled. |
02:39 | To check, create a text box. |
02:43 | Observe the Manual kerns options are now disabled. |
02:47 | Press Ctrl + Z to undo this action. |
02:51 | Next, we will learn about Spell check feature. |
02:54 | To explain the Spell check feature, I will copy text from LibreOffice writer that I had saved already. |
03:01 | Press Ctrl + A to select the entire text and then press Ctrl + C to copy it. |
03:08 | Now come back to Inkscape. |
03:10 | Click on the canvas and press Ctrl + V to paste the text. |
03:15 | Go to Text menu and click on Check Spelling option. |
03:19 | A new dialog box appears. |
03:22 | All text is checked regardless of whether it is selected or not. |
03:27 | When a suspect word is found, it will be highlighted with a red box and the cursor will be placed before the text. |
03:33 | A list of suggestions appears for the word “http”. |
03:37 | Since the spelling is correct we will add this word to the dictionary. |
03:41 | To do so, click on Add to Dictionary button. |
03:45 | This will cause the 'spell checker' to accept the word as correctly spelled always. |
03:50 | Next, the word “tutorial” is highlighted. |
03:53 | Since the spelling is wrong, select the correct word from the suggestion list which is “tutorial”. |
03:59 | Now click on Accept button. |
04:02 | If you click on Ignore, all other similarly spelled words in the document will get ignored. |
04:08 | If you click on Ignore once, the word will get ignored only once i.e first time only. |
04:14 | If you want to stop the spell-checking process, click on Stop. |
04:18 | We can restart the process by clicking the Start button. |
04:22 | Spell checking will begin with the text at the top-right and work down the canvas. |
04:27 | Let us close this dialog box now and keep this text aside. |
04:32 | Next, we will learn to write Superscript and Subscript. |
04:36 | Type the mathematical formula (a+b)2 = a2+b2+2ab.(a + b whole square is equal to a square plus b square plus 2ab). |
04:44 | We have to change the number 2 as square in three places. |
04:48 | Select the first 2. Go to Tool controls bar. Click on Toggle Superscript icon. |
04:56 | In a similar way, change the remaining 2s. |
04:59 | Next, we will write a chemical formula using subscript. |
05:04 | So, type “H2SO4”. |
05:07 | Here 2 and 4 should be written as subscripts. |
05:11 | First select 2. Go to Tool controls bar and click on Toggle Subscript icon. |
05:17 | In a similar way, change the 4. |
05:19 | Let us summarize. |
05:21 | In this tutorial, we have learnt: |
05:24 | * Manual kerning |
05:25 | * Spell checking |
05:26 | * Super-script |
05:27 | * Sub-script. |
05:29 | Here are 2 assignments for you- |
05:31 | Write the text “How are you” and change the font size to 75. |
05:36 | Keep the cursor next to “w”. Change Horizontal kerning parameter to -20. |
05:42 | Select the words “are”. Change the Vertical shift parameter to 40. |
05:47 | Select the words “you”. Change the Character rotation parameter to -30. |
05:52 | Write the following formulae using Sub-script and Super-script options. |
05:57 | Silver sulfate - Ag₂SO₄2. |
06:00 | a2−b2=(a−b)(a+b) |
06:06 | Your completed assignment should look like this. |
06:09 | The video available at the following link summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project. Please watch it. |
06:15 | The Spoken Tutorial Project team conducts workshops and gives certificates for those who pass an online test. |
06:22 | For more details, please write to us. |
06:24 | Spoken Tutorial Project is supported by the NMEICT, MHRD, Government of India. |
06:30 | More information on this mission is available at this link. |
06:34 | We have come to the end of this tutorial. |
06:36 | This is Arthi and Priya from IIT Bombay, signing off. Thanks for joining. |
