Many different types of charts and reports can be printed using your family records. The basic questions to consider before printing any report include the following:
  • What is my purpose in creating a report?
  • Who will see this report?
    • What information do they need?
  • How do I want the report to look when it's printed?
  • What information should be included?
    • Just names?
    • Dates and locations?
    • Notes and sources?
  • Do I want to print the report on paper, display it on screen, or save it to disk?
  • Do I want to print all of the pages of the report, or only selected pages?
  • What custom settings do I want to add before printing?
