1 Open Draw, then create the graphic.
2 Save the graphic.
3 Copy the graphic and paste it into the document, or insert the graphic directly
from the document.
One particularly useful feature of Draw is the ability to open it from other OpenOf-
fice.org modules so you can create a drawing that is automatically imported into your
document.
1 From an OpenOffice.org module (for example, from Writer), click Insert Object
OLE Object OpenOffice.org 2.0 Drawing OK.
This opens Draw.
2 Create your drawing.
3 Click in your document, outside the Draw frame.
The drawing is automatically inserted into your document.
3.7 Creating Mathematical Formulas
with Math
It is usually difficult to include complex mathematical formulas in your documents.
The OpenOffice.org Math equation editor lets you create formulas using operators,
functions, and formatting assistants. You can then save those formulas as objects that
can be imported into other documents. Math functions can be inserted into other
OpenOffice.org documents like any other graphic object.
NOTE
Math is not a calculator. The functions it creates are graphical objects. Even if
they are imported into Calc, these functions cannot be evaluated.
