the standard tuning of guitar is E. which is the tune of the first and the last string.
drop D means tune the guitar so that the key is in D for the first and the last string.
and by changing those 2 strings only, it will sound REALLY weird for most songs(some songs require only tuning of of the strings), so, you will need to tune all the strings.
one of the shortcut (not really recomended) to down tune to D is, put your capo on the first fret and tune it according to the standard tuning. when you take off the capo, it should down tune to D already.

Standard guitar tuning: EADGBE (from low to high)
Drop D tuning: DADGBE
