Hi :)
There is official documentation for LibreOffice here
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Draw_Guide

Inkscape is more specialist vector graphics package
http://inkscape.org/

It sounds like you really need Gimp
http://www.gimp.org/

Someone said something about a replacement for MS OutLook
http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/
Evolution is good but it might be better to use a separate email client such as 
Thunderbird or something tiny, light-weight and fast such as Claws or something 
packed with features such as "The Bat" (not OpenSource but still quite amazing) 
and then an appropriate calendar depending on whether you need it just to 
quickly look-up the date or as a project-management tool for a major project or 
somewhere in the middle.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Draw is an application for vector graphics.

You can crop the image to the section, but that will be rectangle. Make sure 
you have set the correct scale for the image. Select the cropped image. Then 
use File > Export. Mark 'Selection' and choose the desired format, likely png 
or jpg, and save the section as new image. Afterwards you can insert the new 
image.

Cropping itself does not really cut the parts of the picture, but only hides 
them.

Another way for several sections is this: Insert the image several times (which 
will result in 1 image stored) and crop each of it to the desired section.

If you want a not-rectangle section, there exists a complicate way to use a 
combined drawing object, to hide the not needed parts. But I recommend to use 
an application specialized for bitmaps.

Kind regards
Regina
