| 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 the 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 and |
| 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 - Ag₂SO₄. |
| 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. |
