Hi Linda,

I just finished editing your chapter on 'Drawing Basic Shapes'.

http://oooauthors.org/groups/authors/userguide2/draw/drawguidefeedback/drawing_basicshapes_LW_21Mar05_DC.sxw/file_view

There is a large number of utterly trivial edits. :-)
A lot of it is tirival copy-editing. Removing some spaces, applying styles, etc.


I also did a fair bit of language simplification. I made sentences shorter and easier to followed. I removed several instances of the passive voice because they made the sentence a hard to follow.

I turned one explanation of a procedure into a numbered list.

Those were my only substantive changes. I thought the chapter was very good, and I learned several things I didn't know. I was surprised to find that, since this was the most introductory chapter. It was cool. I also felt that the choice of content was very good. As was the way the chapter was organized. Over all, I liked it. Don't let the large number of trivial edits convey otherwise :-)

Cheers,


Thanks Daniel I have the file.

Linda
