Resources for recording Printing a Presentation


Time Narration
00.00 Welcome to this spoken tutorial of LibreOffice Impress - Printing a Presentation.
00.06 In this tutorial, we will learn about the various options for printing -
00.11 Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline.
00.16 Here, we are using:
  • Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and
  • LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00.25 There are times when you would need to print hard-copies of your presentation.
00:29 For example, you may want to give copies of your presentation to your audience for later reference.
00.35 So first, let us open our presentation "Sample Impress" by double-clicking on it.
00.41 To take prints of your slides, click on File and Print. Alternately, we can press Ctrl and P keys together.
00.50 To know about the settings under General and Options tabs, <PAUSE>
00.55 please see the tutorial on Viewing and printing Documents in the LibreOffice Writer series.
01:02 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, we see various options which are unique to Impress.
01:09 These options allow us to take prints of our slides in the desired format -
01:15 Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline. We will choose the Slides option.
01:22 Now, let's click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
01:26 Here, you can choose the parts of the slide that you want to print, the print colours and the size.
01:34 Under Contents, let’s select Slide name, Date and time and Hidden pages.
01:41 As the text describes, these will print the name of the slide, the date and time and hidden pages, if any.
01:49 Then, under Color, let’s select Grayscale.
01:53 As the text describes, the other options will print the slide in its original colour or in black-and-white.
02:00 And, under Size, let’s select Fit to printable page. You can explore the other Size options in the LibreOffice Impress tab on your own.
02:10 Depending on the purpose for which you are taking the prints, various options are available in the Page Layout tab.
02:18 Let’s say- you want to have a number of slides in the same page of the printout.
02:23 So, select Pages per sheet. By default, it prints 1 slide per page.
02:29 Here is a small preview of the page.
02:33 Click on the drop-down arrow and choose the number of pages that you want to print per page.
02:39 If we choose 2 then in the preview, we can see 2 pages. If we choose 6 then in the preview, we can see 6 pages.
02:48 Checking 'Draw a border around each page' option, creates a black border around each page while printing.
02:56 This makes the page look more attractive.
02:59 The next option, Brochure, allows us to print the slides as brochures, for easy binding.
03:06 However, in this case, we will not choose this option. You can explore this option on your own, later.
03:14 Ensure that all the check-boxes in the Options tab are unchecked.
03:19 These check-boxes are for special purposes which we will not discuss in this tutorial.
03:25 Now, click on the Print button.
03:28 If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now. <PAUSE>
03:36 Next, let's learn about the Handouts option. Click on File and Print.
03:41 And in the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose Handout.
03:47 By default, there are 4 slides per page and the default order is left to right, then down. Leave these unchanged for this presentation.
03:58 In the LibreOffice Impress tab, you will find that the Size options are disabled.
04:05 This is because, the size of the print is determined by the number of slides in the sheet and size of the sheet.
04:12 Now, click on the Print button.
04:15 If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
04:20 Let's go to the first slide and click on the Notes tab.
04:25 Here, we will type in a note: “This is a sample note”.
04:30 To print your notes which you typed for your slides, click on File and Print.
04:35 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose the Notes option.
04:42 Look at the preview page on the left. It shows the note you typed, at the bottom of the slide.
04:48 Now, click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
04:52 Notice that the Size options are not available when we print Notes.
04:57 Now, click on the Print button. If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
05:05 Lastly, to print the outline of the slides for quick reference during a presentation, click on File and Print.
05:13 In the General tab, under Print, in the Document field, choose the Outline option.
05:19 Look at the preview page on the left. It shows the outline or the sequence of your slides with the slide headings and sub-points.
05:28 Now, click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
05:32 Notice once again that Size options are not available when we print Outline.
05:38 Now click on the Print button. If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
05:47 With this, we conclude this tutorial where we learnt about printing -
05:52 Slides, Handouts, Notes and, Outline.
