I've already overwritten the styles, replaced the brands at the tops and deleted the footers on the second page. But does this project also include creating the new screenshots for the tuts?

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
Hi :) Could references to OOo and OpenOffice.org be removed fairly easily? I think that is one of our top priorities?

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
Hi Tom :) What I am seeing is OOo specific images in documentation that is already published on the Libreoffice website. Before I say more, I'd like to add that I can see a lot of work has gone into documentation already, and I'm not simply criticizing that work but hoping to help improve upon it however I can. That said, take for example the first image of the Getting Started Guide: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/cgi_img_auth.php/c/c2/0101GS3-IntroducingLibO.pdf. We have OOo icons in that very first image at page 9 while the rest of the screenshots have been updated for the file. In addition, several other files still have OOo branding in the screenshots. I would be happy to clean this up if the team deems it necessary. ~Elliot On Thu, May 12, 2011 at 8:55 AM, Tom Davies tomdavie...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: Hi :) Could references to OOo and OpenOffice.org be removed fairly easily?

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
Hi :) It's not taken as criticism. The documentation team has been working hard and fast just to get documentation out there. There will be mistakes that need fixing and mostly those are ok for now. Branding is a fairly serious issue so it would be fantastic if you could fix it. Sometimes that is about all that there is time to do! The team is doing a great job but does appreciate help :) All good, nicely spotted :) Regards from Tom :) From: Elliot Turner sf.freela...@gmail.com To: documentation@libreoffice.org Sent: Thu, 12 May, 2011 16:09:54 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
Replacing the screenshots definitely needs to be done, either at this point or during the review to see what else may need to be changed because of differences between OOo Impress and LibO Impress. So please do so if you want to and have time. If you do replace screenshots, please note that we're avoiding taking them from Windows unless it's a Windows-specific screen or it's not evident which o/s the image is from -- most cropped images would fit in that category. Also note use of preferred icon set if icons are visible. Misc tips on anchoring and other image-related topics are in the doc on producing LibO user guides. I assume you have also replaced OpenOffice.org with LibreOffice in the text, and done the other items on the list of things in rebranding. Thanks for doing this! --Jean On 13/05/2011, at 0:22, Elliot Turner sf.freela...@gmail.com wrote: I've already overwritten the styles, replaced the brands at the tops and deleted the footers on the second page.

That was certainly an oversight if any remained in a published doc, and will need to be fixed in the next update.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
Two topics: (1) Impress Guide rebranding. Have you been using the Template Changer extension to assign the LibO template to the rebranded Impress Guide chapters? If not, please do that at some point. Assigning a template takes care of all the style changes, the footer on the copyright page, and other things, though a few items need to be done manually (like the cover page graphic). (2) Fixing published chapters of other books. If you work on the published books but can't do screenshots, you can insert a comment at each image you notice that needs to be replaced; that will help whoever does the screenshots. Please put the revised or annotated chapters into the Drafts space for the relevant book on Alfresco. You'll find some inconsistency in where the published chapters are stored on Alfresco, and what the file names are. (Writer Guide chapters are, I think, in the WG Reviewed space, not the Published space. Getting Started Guide chapters have interim file names, not the proper ones that you'll find on the wiki.) This is dpartly due ue to a combination of us making all this up as we go along and recovering from a crash, then not finding time to reorganise things properly. --Jean On Thu, 2011-05-12 at 16:45 -0600, Elliot Turner wrote: Oh, there's a Resources section on Alfresco.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Is anyone working on rebranding the Impress Guide?
(1) What I did do was overwrite the existing document's styles with the styles from a document that was already published. Since this didn't automatically adjust the footer, I'm going to redo it using the correct method just in case there are other things I've missed. Don't worry. I have a clear idea now of what I did incorrectly and what I need to do to fix it. Again, thank you. (2) LOL.
