Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Printing a Presentation.
00:06	In this tutorial, we learn about the various options for Printing:
00:12	Slides, Handouts, Notes and Outline
00:20	This tutorial is recorded using Ubuntu Linux OS version 18.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 6.3.5
00:34	Printing option is useful: When we need to print hard copies of our presentation
00:42	When we may want to give copies of our presentation to our audience for later reference
00:50	Let's open the presentation Sample-Impress.odp which we saved earlier.
00:59	This file has been provided to you in the Code files link on this tutorial page Please download and extract the file
01:10	Make a copy and then use it for practicing
01:15	Let’s learn how to take a printout of our slides in various formats.
01:22	There is a Print icon in the Standard toolbar.
01:26	Notice the tooltip on the icon displays a shortcut key ‘Control plus P’ to print the slides. Click on the Print icon.
01:38	The Print dialog box opens.
01:42	Close the Print dialog box for now.
01:46	I will demonstrate another method to open the Print dialog box.
01:52	Click on the File menu in the menu bar and then click on the Print option.
01:59	In the Print dialog box, we see two tabs namely General and LibreOffice Impress.
02:08	Let's look at the options under the LibreOffice Impress tab first.
02:14	Let’s start from the Document section.
02:18	By default, in the drop-down of the Type field, Slides option is selected.
02:25	To see other options, click on the drop-down of the Type field.
02:31	The options in the Type field are unique to Impress.
02:36	These options allow us to take prints of slides in other formats such as:
02:43	Handouts, Notes and Outline
02:51	Look at the Print preview of the slides on the left-hand side.
02:57	There are previous and next page icons here.
03:02	Scroll through all the slides in the Print preview window to see how they will be printed.
03:11	Under the Contents section, by default, the Hidden pages checkbox is selected.
03:18	We will select Slide name andDate and time checkboxes also.
03:24	These will print the name of the slide, with date and time, and also the hidden pages, if any.
03:32	Under the Color section, let's select the Grayscale radio button by clicking on it.
03:39	Under the Size section, we’ll select ‘Fit to printable page’ radio button.
03:46	You can explore the other color and size options in the LibreOffice Impress tab on your own later.
03:54	Next, let’s look at the options under the General tab.
03:59	Under Printer we will select our configured Printer’s name
04:04	Go to the Page Layout section.
04:07	Various options are available in the Page Layout section.
04:12	In the Orientation field, we’ll choose the option Landscape.
04:18	In the Pages per sheet field, we have the number 1, by default. This means it prints one slide on the page.
04:29	On the right-hand side of the Order field, we see a rectangle box displaying number 1, as well.
04:37	This is a preview of the slide number as per the option in the Pages per sheet field.
04:44	Let’s say we want to have more than one slide on the same page of the printout.
04:51	So, in the Pages per sheet field, we can choose the number of slides that we want to print per page.
05:00	We will choose ‘2’ in this field.
05:04	Now, we see a preview of slide numbers ‘1’ and ‘2’ in the rectangle box.
05:12	We can also see a preview of two slides per page in the Print preview on the left.
05:20	Now let’s choose ‘4’ in the Pages per sheet field and see what happens.
05:28	Immediately, we see a preview of slide numbers ‘1 to 4’ in the rectangle box.
05:36	Likewise, we see a preview of four slides per page in the Print preview on the left.
05:44	Next, click on the checkbox of ‘Draw a border around each page’.
05:50	This creates a black border around each slide while printing. This makes the page look more attractive.
05:59	Finally, to print the slides, click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.
06:06	If your printer is configured correctly, the presentation should start printing now.
06:12	Next, let's learn how to take the print of slides in Handouts format.
06:18	Click on the Print icon in the Standard Toolbar.
06:23	In the Print dialog box, click on the LibreOffice Impress tab.
06:28	Click on the drop-down of the Type field and choose the Handouts option.
06:34	In the Slides per page field, According to Layout option is selected, by default.
06:41	This displays 5 slides in the Print preview on the left.
06:47	But from Slides per page, we can select any number of slides we want to print as Handouts. I will change this to 3.
06:58	Leave all other options unchanged for this presentation.
07:03	Finally, to print the slides, click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.
07:10	If the printer is configured correctly, the presentation should start printing now.
07:16	Next, let's go to the first slide and click on the Notes tab.
07:22	Click on the Click to add Notes and type “This is a sample note”.
07:28	Then click anywhere outside the textbox.
07:32	Let’s print our notes, which we typed for our slides.
07:37	As before, click on the Print icon in the Standard Toolbar.
07:43	Notice that LibreOffice Impress tab is now directly open in the Print dialog box.
07:50	In the drop-down of the Type field, choose the Notes option.
07:55	Now, look at the Print preview of the slide on the left.
08:00	It shows the note which we had typed earlier, at the bottom of the Print preview.
08:06	Scroll through all the slides in the Print preview window to see all the other notes that we typed.
08:14	Click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.
08:18	If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
08:24	Lastly, let’s print the Outline of the slides for quick reference during a presentation.
08:31	Once again, click to the Print icon in the Standard Toolbar.
08:36	In the drop-down of the Type field, choose the Outline option.
08:41	Now, look at the Print preview of the slide on the left.
08:46	It shows the outline or the sequence of our slides with the slide headings and sub-points.
08:54	Click on the OK button at the bottom right corner.
08:58	If the printer is configured correctly, the printer should start printing now.
09:04	Let us save all the changes we made in our presentation by clicking on the Save icon. And then close the file.
