Hello all, Please help me to review the first release candidate for the Impress Guide:
http://www.oooauthors.org/english/userguide3/impress3/ig3.2-published/RC1.pdf/view Here are Jean's standard instructions for this process, for those who haven't been through it before: Try to find things like missing illustrations (blank places where they should be), wrong cross-references to figure and table numbers, missing cross refs (identified by Error!), wrong fonts or font sizes, and any other weirdnesses that I can no longer see. Please DON'T all start with chapter 1 because we end up with 15 reviews of the early chapters and none of the later chapters in the book. Look for errors like this: * Missing x-refs (marked by "Error! xxxx") or wrong x-refs (usually to the wrong figure number) * Incorrect list numbering (not starting with 1, or following items in a list not numbered sequentially) * Missing figures * Up to date info on the copyright page (email address, date of publication, OOo version, and website address in footer) * Characters, words, graphics (especially circles and callouts on other graphics) in wrong places on the page * Conspicuously bad page breaks; for example, the lead-in sentence to a list on one page, with all of the list on the next page, or a table row split over two pages, or a very large blank space at the bottom of a page because a graphic or table has gone to the next page when it should not have done so * And anything else that looks wrong This sort of checking can be done fairly quickly, because you should be skimming, not reading in detail. At this point you should NOT primarily be looking for minor wording inconsistencies and other issues. Of course, if you find errors do let Jared know. An email to the list giving the file name, the page number, and the error is the easiest way to do this for PDFs. --Jean Thanks for your help! Jared
