| 00:01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Import and Export Images in LibreOffice Draw. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial, you will learn to import images into a Draw page and to save a Draw file into various file formats. |
| 00:16 | We can import and export both vector and bitmap or raster images in Draw. |
| 00:23 | Here, we are using:
Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4. |
| 00:32 | Let us open the file 'RouteMap'. |
| 00:35 | For the purpose of this tutorial, a 'JPEG' file of the 'WaterCycle' drawing has already been created and saved on the Desktop. |
| 00:46 | Let us import this image into our Draw file. |
| 00:49 | Let’s close this image. |
| 00:52 | First, select the page where you want to import the picture. |
| 00:57 | Let’s insert a new page and select it. |
| 01:01 | To import vector or bitmap images, click on the Insert tab and select Picture. |
| 01:08 | Then click From File. |
| 01:10 | The Insert picture dialog-box appears. |
| 01:14 | Let us now select 'Water Cycle.jpeg.' |
| 00:17 | If we click on Open, the image will be embedded physically into our Draw file. |
| 01:24 | If we check the Link box here, then the image will be linked by the path. |
| 01:29 | Let us click on Open. |
| 01:32 | A message appears saying that the image will only be stored as a link. |
| 01:37 | Click Keep Link. |
| 01:40 | The picture is inserted as a link in the Draw file. |
| 01:44 | Links can also be removed easily. |
| 01:48 | Go to the Main menu, select Edit and then click Link. |
| 01:53 | The Edit Links dialog-box appears. |
| 01:57 | This dialog-box lists all the links in the Draw file. |
| 02:02 | Click on the link for the picture 'WaterCycle'. |
| 02:06 | Click Break Link. |
| 02:09 | Draw will display a confirmation message. Click Yes. |
| 02:14 | The link is removed. Now, click on the Close button. |
| 02:20 | But, you will notice that the picture is still present in the file. |
| 02:25 | When you break a link, the picture is automatically embedded in the Draw file. |
| 02:31 | Let’s delete this picture now. Select the picture and press the Delete button. |
| 02:39 | Here is an assignment for you. |
| 02:42 | Create two Draw files. |
| 02:44 | Insert an image in one file and save it. |
| 02:48 | Embed an image in another file and save it. |
| 02:52 | Compare both the file sizes. |
| 02:55 | In the file in which you linked the image, change the size of the image. |
| 03:00 | Check if the change is reflected in the original file. |
| 03:05 | Next, let’s import the 'WaterCycle' diagram directly into this file as a Draw image. |
| 03:13 | From the Main menu, click Insert and select File. |
| 03:18 | The Insert File dialog-box opens. |
| 03:21 | From the list, select the Draw file "WaterCycle.odg". |
| 03:28 | Click Open. |
| 03:30 | The Insert slides/objects dialog-box appears. |
| 03:34 | Click on the plus sign next to the file path. |
| 03:38 | You will see a list of the slides. |
| 03:41 | Let us select slide one with the 'WaterCycle' diagram. |
| 03:46 | You can also insert the page or the object as a link. |
| 03:51 | To do this, simply click the Link check-box. |
| 03:55 | Click OK. |
| 03:57 | A confirmation dialog-box appears, asking if the objects should be fit to the new format. |
| 04:05 | Click Yes. |
| 04:07 | The slide is inserted into the file, in a new page. |
| 04:12 | Next, we shall learn to export images from Draw. |
| 04:17 | Exporting a file in 'Draw' means- to convert a 'Draw' file or a page of the Draw file or an object in a Draw file to a different file format. |
| 04:29 | For example, the 'Draw' file can be converted to a 'PDF', 'HTML', 'JPEG' or a bitmap file. |
| 04:39 | The file formats PDF, Flash and HTML always export the whole 'Draw' file. |
| 04:47 | Let’s minimize the 'RouteMap' file. |
| 04:51 | Do you wonder how we converted the 'Draw' 'WaterCycle' diagram to the 'JPEG' format? |
| 04:58 | Let me demonstrate how it was done. |
| 05:01 | Open the file 'WaterCycle.' |
| 05:05 | Then, from the Pages panel, select the page with the 'WaterCycle' diagram. |
| 05:11 | From the Main menu, click File and select Export. |
| 05:16 | The Export dialog-box appears. |
| 05:18 | Let us enter the name "WaterCycleDiagram" in Filename field. |
| 05:24 | From the Places panel, browse and select Desktop. |
| 05:29 | In the File type field, we will select the option JPEG. But you can save the 'Draw' file in any format you want. |
| 05:38 | Check the Selection check-box. |
| 05:42 | Click Save. |
| 05:43 | The JPEG Options dialog-box appears. |
| 05:47 | Let’s keep the default options that are selected in this dialog-box. |
| 05:53 | Click OK. |
| 05:55 | The Draw page with the 'WaterCycle' diagram is saved as a 'JPEG' on the Desktop. |
| 06:02 | Here, only one page from the 'Draw' file is converted to 'JPEG' file. |
| 06:08 | If you save in PDF, Flash or HTML formats then all the pages in the 'Draw' file will be exported. |
| 06:18 | We can also edit raster images in 'Draw'. |
| 06:22 | Raster images can be formatted using the Format menu. |
| 06:26 | You can also use the Picture toolbar to edit these pictures. |
| 06:31 | This brings us to the end of the tutorial on LibreOffice Draw. |
| 06:37 | In this tutorial, you have learnt to import and export images and to save Draw objects into various file formats. |
| 06:47 | Here is an assignment for you. |
| 06:50 | Individual objects or a group of selected objects can also be exported. |
| 06:56 | Convert only the clouds and the mountain from the 'WaterCycle' Draw file into 'JPEG' format. |
