Task 2 – Image Editing and File Management

1 Create a new folder called TAS

Locate the following files and store them in your TAS folder.

j2332banner.jpg
j2332elep.htm
j2332eleph1.jpg
j2332elephant.jpg
j2332monkey.jpg
j2332tas.css
j2332tas.txt
j2332tiger.jpg
j2332tiger.mp4

Open the file j2332tiger.jpg in a graphics package. Edit the image by:

• rotating it 180 degrees

• reflecting (flipping) it horizontally so the tyre is on the left
• cropping it to remove most of the tyre but none of the tiger
• cropping it to remove everything above the tiger’s ears
• resizing it so that the image is 1000 pixels high but without changing the aspect ratio
• cropping it to remove the right side so that the image is 500 pixels wide by 1000 pixels high.

Save this new image in your TAS folder in .png format, using the file name tiger_ followed by your
candidate number, for example, tiger_9999

Display the contents of your TAS folder, showing the folder name, all file names, file extensions,
image dimensions and file sizes.

Take a screenshot of this folder and place this in your Evidence Document.

Task 3 – Web Page

You are going to create a web page and stylesheet to promote the Tawara Animal Sanctuary. The
web page and stylesheet must work in any browser. All colour codes are in hexadecimal and any new
colour codes must also be in hexadecimal. Make sure that your stylesheet contains no HTML. Make
your HTML and stylesheet as efficient as possible.

2 Create in your TAS folder a web page called tas.htm

This web page must be created using a single table and work in all browsers. The table must fit
80% of the browser window. The table must have a structure as shown in this diagram:

B width = 58% C width = 42%

E width = 29% F width = 29%

Each table cell is identified with a letter. Some dimensions are shown.

The cell contents shown in the diagram must not appear on your final web page.

Table borders must not appear on your final web page.

6 Create a hyperlink from the image j2332monkey.jpg to send an email message to

tas@cambridge.org with a subject line Support a monkey [5]

7 Attach the stylesheet j2332tas.css to this web page.

Save your web page.

Display the web page in your browser. Take screenshot evidence and place this in your Evidence
Document.

Make sure that:

Task 4 – Spreadsheets

The Tawara Animal Sanctuary is currently running three projects: Elephant, Monkey and Tiger. Income
is from donations and for each project they record the amount spent on food, veterinary bills and
relocating the animals back into the wild. You will edit a spreadsheet for this data. All currency values
must be in dollars ($), displayed to 2 decimal places.

8 Open and examine the file j2332project.csv in your spreadsheet software.

Copy and paste the contents of cell A4 into cell B5.

Delete rows 3 and 4.

Place in the header, centre aligned, the text Spreadsheet prepared by followed by a space, your
name, centre number and candidate number, then a space followed by on followed by a space
and today’s automated date, then a space followed by at followed by a space and the automated
time.

Save your spreadsheet with the file name project_centre number_candidate number, for example,
project_ZZ999_9999
[6]

9 Merge cells A1:N1, A9:A12, A13:A16 and A17:A20. Format the merged cell A1:N1 to have a solid
black background. Format the spreadsheet to look like this.
