A brief introduction

What is Impress?• Impress is the open source
(free) alternative to PowerPoint
• You can Impress for the same things you would do in PowerPoint– Create a lesson with
handouts– Great for end of year
programs– Certificates– Seating Chart– Graduations, weddings,
retirements, birthdays• Great for showcasing
photos
• There are differences and similarities
• For basic presentations, the main difference you will notice is that menu choices may be located in different locations
• You can easily create a .pdf file
• Clip art is not as full featured as Microsoft
• FontWorks (WordArt) not as full featured
• Nice design templates

Working with TextText must be selected like any other object/text before modifying
Once text has been selected you can select portions or blocks of text within the box by clicking and holding the left mouse button and dragging over the text to be selected.

Select a sentence - click 3 times anywhere in the sentence
Select all the text in box - Click in the text box and select your text.
If you click on the “slashed” border in Impress - it does NOT turn into dots (like PowerPoint). The border goes away but the corner “handles” remain. This is the same as highlighting everything in the text box, EXCEPT your formatting toolbar will be hidden and you will see a toolbar to format the text box. You will need to use Format, Character to change your font.
![Page 21: Using StarImpresselearning.nccsc.k12.in.us/pluginfile.php/16953/mod...existing design will affect your layout/text, etc. –Especially if you have added your own textboxes and other](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060323/5f0dbbee7e708231d43bd1e5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
