And there it's Richard Butler from P L or dot meat. And in today's video,

0:03

I'm going to show you how easy it is to edit our reports and eBooks

0:08

using just Google docs, which is for free.

0:11

So it doesn't matter if you don't have word,

0:13

you can still edit our documents using Google docs.

0:21

Now, here I am in Google docs.

0:22

The first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to go to new and I'm going to say

0:25

file upload. And I'm going to choose the document here.

0:29

The keys to being a great leader,

0:31

I click on upload and this will upload to Google docs down here. You'll see it.

0:36

And once it's uploaded, I just click on it to open it.

0:40

It will take just a couple of seconds to load up,

0:42

cause it's quite a big document with some graphics in it.

0:46

So here's the document loaded up.

0:48

And what I want to do now is I want to change the cover here.

0:53

So where do you find images? Well,

0:54

be very careful because you can't just download an image from the web that you

0:57

like. You need to make sure that there's no copyright issues.

1:01

So we recommend this site pick survey,

1:03

which allows you to search for different images.

1:06

So I'm going to type in meetings and I think I'm going to choose

1:11

this image here of the conference room. So I just click on it.

1:15

I click on free download.

1:17

I choose the size that I want in 1920 by 1280 is perfect.

1:21

And I click on download and it may ask me to confirm that I'm not a

1:26

robot, which I'm not just in case. Um,

1:29

so I'd click on download and that download to my computer. Now,

1:33

if I go back to the document I click anywhere are probably near the bottom of

1:37

the document is good. So I don't get any text in the way.

1:41

And I go to replace image upload from computer and I choose the conference

1:46

room JPG and OPIC count.

1:49

And I think that looks really good what'd you can do now is you can decide to

1:53

change some of the texts.

1:54

So I might decide to just change this to how to be an exceptional

1:59

leader. So I double click on this.

2:03

It opens up as a Google drawing and I changed this to exceptional

2:10

and I just make this a little bit wider and then I click save and close,

2:15

and I'm going to actually change this text as well. Now this is in white,

2:19

so it's a little bit difficult to see. So I'm going to call this here,

2:24

how to be an certain clothes. And now I see it.

2:29

Now the spacing is a little bit off here, so, uh,

2:33

I'm going to click on this text and I'm just going to just be a little bit more

2:37

precise.

2:38

I'm going to hold the shift key and use the arrow key to move the actual text

2:42

box up. Now, why do I do that?

2:44

Because sometimes if you click on the text and try and move it,

2:48

it may move the image. And this is just a little bit quicker and easier.

2:52

I'm going to do the same with this one

2:56

and the how to inspire others. I'm going to bring that down as well.

3:04

Now let's continue on and see what we do next. Well,

3:08

I can put my name after the copyright symbol here,

3:11

and if I want to change the actual footer, which I should,

3:15

I can just double click down on the footer. And I just click out of there now,

3:20

going down through the document,

3:22

the only other things that I might want to change is for example,

3:24

this background picture again, I click on it. I click replace image. I say,

3:29

upload from computer and here,

3:32

I'm going to take an image of stones and that looks perfect.

3:37

If I want to change the text,

3:38

I would do exactly what I did before double click on it.

3:41

I'd make changes from there.

3:43

Now the next thing that sometimes causes problems is these drop capitals.

3:47

So what I'm going to do is I'm just going to delete those capitals and bring

3:52

this up to the next page by hitting the backspace.

3:55

And I'm just going to put in the how here and now I could actually just increase

4:00

that a little bit. If I wanted. Now,

4:01

sometimes when you're working with Google docs, strange things can happen.

4:04

So what I'm simply going to do here is I'm going to just put in these

4:09

bullet points here and I'll just delete them from here.

4:13

And then I continue down here. So as you can see,

4:16

Google docs can definitely be used to edit our content.

4:20

So when you're ready to publish this,

4:21

you go to file and you go to download and you choose

4:25

PDF and that downloads the PDF. It should look great.

4:29

Now here's one little tip.

4:31

Just make sure that you actually change the name of the PDF. You can right.

4:36

Click on the PDF and just change it. Otherwise the name remains the same.

4:40

So you do have any questions, just let me know in the comments below,

4:43

and I'll talk to you in the next video.
