I have been creating some Descendant Book Reports and it appears to have some 
peculiarities, which I thought were minor problems.

Specifically, I created a report with 5 generations, and with its Name Index, 
2-column, it was 23 pages in length.
It has a Table of Contents, and that has the very helpful First Generation, 
Second Generation,   ..., Fifth Generation, and  Name Index  page numbers. 
(these were on pages 1,3,9,16,20, and 22)

For some reason, I was not getting a page number on any of the 23 pages. The 
Page Setup |  Headings and Page Numbers tab  seems to be the place to set this 
to give a centred page number at the bottom. 

Getting to the report settings for this is in itself a little confusing: the 
Report Options tab at the base of the configuration/settings needs to be 
selected, but it is the right margin area of that - the non-coloured, narrow 
section with a box   [ Page Headers, Footers... ]  which must be clicked. 
(a bit hard to describe - needs some step-by-step pictures of the report 
settings)
 
Then, the Page Number Position section of that page requires attention to 
select Bottom Centre.

However, it is a very comprehensive method for displaying the Legacy data in a 
way that "ordinary people" can understand. I regard it as an excellent means to 
explain the connections of generations.
