| 00:24 | Here we are using Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4 |
| 00:33 | LibreOffice Writer allows you to add page numbers to a document. |
| 00:38 | We shall open our resume.odt file. |
| 00:42 | To insert page numbers in the footer, we first click on the page where we want to insert the footer. |
| 00:49 | So lets click on the document page. |
| 00:51 | Now click on the “Insert” option in the menu bar and then click on the“Footer” option. |
| 00:58 | Next, click on the “Default” option. |
| 01:01 | We see that a footer is added at the bottom of the page. |
| 01:06 | To display the page number in the footer, we shall first click on the “Insert” option. |
| 01;12 | Then click on the “Fields” option. |
| 01:15 | You can see several footer options are displayed here. |
| 01;19 | Click on the “Page Number” to insert the page number in the document. |
| 01:24 | Immediately, we see that the number “1” is displayed in the footer. |
| 01:29 | In order to give different styles to the page number, double click on the page number. |
| 01:35 | We see that the “Edit Fields: Document” dialog box appears on the screen. |
| 01:41 | Under the “Format” option, you see many formats like “A B C in uppercase”, “a b c in lowercase”,”Arabic 1 2 3”and many more. |
| 01:53 | Here you can choose the page numbering style that you prefer. |
| 01:58 | We will choose “Roman i,ii,iii “ option and then click on the “OK” button. |
| 02:05 | You see that the numbering format changes for the page. |
| 02:09 | Similarly, we can insert a header into the document. |
| 02:13 | First click on the page where the header should be inserted. |
| 02:17 | Now click on the “Insert” menu and then click on the “Header” option. |
| 02;23 | Click on the “Default” option. |
| 02:26 | You see that a header gets inserted at the top of the page |
| 02:30 | In order to enter the date in the header, click on “Insert” and then click on “Fields” option. |
| 02:37 | In the side menu which appears, click on the “Date” option. |
| 02:42 | The date is displayed in the header. |
| 02:45 | Double-clicking on the date shows all the possible formats in which the date can be displayed. |
| 02:51 | Here we will choose 31 Dec, 1999 and click on OK. |
| 02:58 | Now click on the “File” menu in the menu bar and then click on the “Page preview” option. |
| 03:05 | Let us zoom the document to “50%”. |
| 03:09 | So we can see the “Date” at the top of the page and the page number at the bottom. |
| 03:15 | This will be replicated on all the pages of the document. |
| 03:19 | To get back to the original document, click on the “Close Preview” button. |
| 03:25 | You can also adjust the spacing of the text relative to the header or footer frame. |
| 03:30 | Or apply a border to the header or footer. |
| 03:34 | Click on the “Format” option in the menu bar and then click on “Page”. |
| 03:40 | Select the “Footer” tab in the dialog box. |
| 03:43 | Set the spacing options that you want to use by setting the value of the “Left margin” to 1.00cm”. |
| 03:52 | To add a border or a shadow to the footer, click on the “More” option first and then set the value of the options you want to put into the footer. |
| 04:03 | For example , to put a shadow style to the footer, we click on the “Cast Shadow to Top Right” icon. |
| 04;10 | This is visible here - among the various icons available under the “Position” tab of the “Shadow style” option. |
| 04:18 | You can choose the colour of the border and the shadow as well. |
| 04:23 | Explore this dialog box to know more about each of the available options. |
| 04:28 | Now click on the “OK”. |
| 04:30 | Again click on OK and we see that the effect is added to the footer. |
| 04;36 | Lets add another page to our document before proceeding further. |
| 04:41 | This done by clicking Insert >> Manual Break and choosing the Page break option. |
| 04:47 | Then click on “OK”
|
| 04:50 | Notice that the page number is displayed as “2”. |
| 04:54 | If you don’t want a footer on the first page of the document, then first place the cursor on the first page. |
| 05:01 | Next click on “Format” in the menu bar and click on the “Styles and Formatting” option. |
| 05:08 | Now in the dialog box which appears, click on the 4th icon at the top, which is “Page Styles”. |
| 05:16 | Then right-click on the “First Page” option. |
| 05:20 | Click on the “New” option and then click on the “Organiser” tab. |
| 05:25 | In the “Name” field we can type the name of the new style we wish to insert. |
| 04:30 | So here ,we will type the name as “new first page”. |
| 05:35 | Set “Next Style” as “Default”. |
| 05:38 | Now click on the “Footer” tab in the dialog box. |
| 05:42 | Uncheck the “Footer on” checkbox if it is not unchecked by default. |
| 05:48 | Finally, click on the “OK” button. |
| 05:51 | We are back to the Styles and Formatting dialog box. |
| 05:55 | Notice that “new first page” style appears under the “Page Styles” options. |
| 06:01 | Now double click on the “new first page”. |
| 06:04 | You see that there is footer on all the pages of the document except the first page. |
| 06:11 | Likewise you can do modifications on all the available default styles and apply them on each page of the document. |
| 06:19 | Lets close this dialog box. |
| 06:22 | Now, lets learn about footnotes and endnotes in LibreOffice Writer. |
| 06:27 | Footnotes appear at the bottom of the page on which they are referenced |
| 06:31 | whereas Endnotes are collected at the end of a document. |
| 06:35 | The anchor for the note is inserted at the current cursor position. |
| 06:40 | You can choose between automatic numbering or a custom symbol. |
| 06:45 | To access this option, first click on the “Insert” option in the menu bar. |
| 06:51 | Then click on the “Footnote/Endnote” option. |
| 06:55 | You see that a dialog box appears on the screen with headings named “Numbering” and “Type”. |
| 07:02 | There are checkboxes namely ,”Automatic”, “Character”, “Footnote” and “Endnote”. |
| 07:08 | “Numbering” allows you to select the type of numbering that you want to use for footnotes and endnotes. |
| 07:15 | The “Automatic” option automatically assigns consecutive numbers to the footnotes or endnotes that you insert. |
| 07:24 | Lets close this dialog box. |
| 07:26 | To change the settings for automatic numbering, click on the “Tools” option in the menu bar |
| 07:33 | And then click on “Footnotes/Endnotes.” |
| 07:37 | You have a choice of automatic settings for AutoNumbering and Styles. |
| 07:42 | Choose from these options as per your requirement and then click on the “OK” button. |
| 07:49 | Lets go back to Insert and Footnote/Endnote option. |
| 07:54 | The “Character” option is used to define a character or symbol for the current footnote. |
| 08:00 | This can be either a letter or number. |
| 08:03 | To assign a special character, click on the button below the character field. |
| 08:09 | Now click on any of the special characters you want to insert and then click on the “OK” button. |
| 08:17 | Click on either “Footnote” or “Endnote” option under the “Type” heading to specify our choice. |
| 08:24 | So we will select “Automatic” under “Numbering” and “Footnote” under “Type” |
| 08:29 | Now click on the “OK” button. |
| 08:32 | You see that a footnote field appears at the bottom of the page with default numerical value. |
| 08:39 | You can write the text “This is the end of first page” in the footnote field |
| 08:45 | And then press the “Enter” button on the keyboard. |
| 08:48 | You can see the required footnote along with the text at the bottom of the page. |
| 08:55 | Likewise, you can insert an endnote at the bottom of the document. |
