Probably it is something related to differences in fonts. Most of the text boxes of the different translations of the basic tutorial overlap. Currently I'm working on the Dutch translation. From what I see, the position of the different text boxes needs to be readapted for all translated basic tutorials (there is a translation, but the text boxes are kept at the same place although, the text in translation might be shorter or longer).

@Marathongman - which version of Inkscape on which platform?

1) garbled tutorial text: duplicate of Bug #381274 in Inkscape: “request to build tutorials”?
2) "When I leave this page to return to the tutorial the report a bug is still there and the screen is grayed out and unresponsive"
This must be related to the launcher extension for the web pages in the help menu.

As soon as time permits I will repeat my steps and make more detailed notes.

Thank you for your reply - it helps me to learn

A new tutorial build has been committed in revision 22268. It removes the overlap bug.
Could you please (if you can compile it, of course) test a recent revision?
Thanks!

LOL - But anyway it seems to be improved. Perhaps something to do with word wrapping or some other type of editing. For example - at the end of the first paragraph

 have the zoom tool(in the toolbar on left) which lets you zoom into an area by dragging

around it.

Inkscape also keeps a etc etc

It contiues throughout the tutorial - scrolling down

(EPS,PNG is right on top if

Inkscape opens etc etc

I would gladly compile it if I could. A long long time ago I did teach myself MS-DOS haven't used it in a long time but if you were to send instructions I would gladly give it a try.

The very last paragraph of TIP

apply this procedure to each piece

Exporting gradients to etc etc

Where as everything else is double spaced. I tried to copy and paste examples but I could not

so I hope this is some help to you

@Marathongman. Are you sure you're testing a very recent build?. I've updated the files in revision 22268. So if you use a pre version (0, 1 or 2), you still use the old tutorials.
If you can't compile from SVN, could you please download the latest tutorial (http://inkscape.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/inkscape/inkscape/trunk/share/tutorials/tutorial-basic.svg) and open it with your inkscape version?
Thanks!
