Finally: update everything, check the spelling, go through the checklist and create a PDF – with bookmarks and embedded fonts.

The video

In the video you see LibreOffice in the browser. The orange frame always shows where you click next. In other word processors the menus have slightly different names; the steps are the same.

Subtitles are available in ten languages. Choose them at the bottom right of the video.

PDF in the browser

In LibreOffice in the browser: File › Download › PDF Document (Datei › Herunterladen › PDF-Dokument). The PDF has bookmarks, a clickable table of contents and embedded fonts.

The finished PDF: table of contents and a page with a formula.

Always open the PDF once more and leaf through it before you hand it in. The PDF is a photo of the document: outdated page numbers in the table end up in it exactly as they are.

The worksheet

Here you can see the worksheet for the video (in German). If there is a practice file, you download it above and work in your own word processor. The hints are printed upside down – turn the sheet only when you cannot get on by yourself. You can also open it as a PDF.

Task

Why do you update the tables only at the very end, right before the PDF?

Show solution

Every change to the text can shift page numbers. Only after the last change are they certainly right – and the PDF takes them over unchanged.

Keep learning with a language model

You are my teacher. I am handing in my Facharbeit tomorrow. Go through a checklist with me: ask me point by point (form, references, tables of contents, declaration, PDF) whether I have done it, and wait for my answer each time.

How this was made: The idea and the choice of topics are mine. A language model (LLM) drafted the script, the sample paper, the tasks and this page following my instructions. The screen recordings were made automatically by a script in LibreOffice (in the browser, with Collabora Online), which checked after every step that the setting was really saved. The voice was generated with Qwen3-TTS, modelled on my own voice.

The sample paper about the thread pendulum is invented, and so are the person “Alex Beispiel” and the two sources in the bibliography.
