When you first install, you will be presented with a choice on how you want to partition. The options, if you have Windows, are to automatically resize Windows and use the space freed for Ubuntu, format the entire drive automatically, or choose how you want the partitions set up (manual). Under the resize option,there will be a slider to give more or less space to Ubuntu and less to Windows.

After you've installed Linux, you can change the partitions either by using the manual option in the installer, or using another Linux LiveCD designed for this purpose, like GParted.
