00:00 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on LibreOffice Impress - Creating a presentation document and basic formatting.
00:08 In this tutorial we will learn about the parts of the Impress window and how to:Insert slides,Copy slides, About Fonts and Formating a fonts.
00:21 Here we are using Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00:29 Lets open our presentation “Sample Impress” that we created in the previous tutorial.
00:35 Lets take a tour of what is on the screen.
00:39 In the centre, we see the ‘Workspace’, which is our working area.
00:44 As you can see, the “Workspace” has 5 tabs called the “View buttons”.
00:49 Currently the “Normal” tab is selected.
00:52 This is the main view for creating individual slides.
00:55 The “Outline” view shows topic titles, bulleted and numbered lists for each slide in outline format.
01:03 The “Notes” view lets you add notes to each slide that are not seen when the presentation is shown.
01:10 The “Handout” view allows to print the slides for a handout.
01:14 Here we can choose the number of slides that we want to print per page.
01:19 The “Slide Sorter” view shows thumbnails of the slides.
01:23 Lets click on the “Normal” view button again.
01:26 On the left hand side of the screen, you see the “Slides” pane. It contains ‘thumbnails’ of the slides in the presentation.
01:34 On the right hand side, you see the “Tasks” pane, which has 5 sections.
01:40 The Layouts section has pre-packaged layouts.
01:43 We can use these directly or modify them as per our requirements.
01:48 We should see each of these sections in detail as we progress through the tutorial series.
01:53 Now, lets learn how to insert a slide.Select the second slide, in the “Slides” pane, by clicking on it.
02:02 Now we click on “Insert” and “Slide”.
02:05 We see that a new blank slide has been inserted after the second slide.
02:10 To add a title to the slide, click on the text bar that says ‘Click to add Title’.
02:17 Now type ‘Short Term Strategy’ and click outside the text box.
02:23 So a title can be added in this way.
02:26 There are two ways in which we can make a copy of a slide.
02:30 Let’s look at the first way; Click on “Insert” and “Duplicate Slide”.
02:35 We can see that a new duplicate slide has been inserted after the one we created in the previous step.

02:50 Now copy the 7th slide by right-clicking on it and selecting “Copy” from the context menu.
02:58 Right click on the last slide and select "Paste".
03:01 Select ‘After’ and click ‘OK’.
