With respect, PDF files are NOT editable. You may manipulate them in a limited fashion but they are designed to be not editable. When changes are required in a PDF they must be made in the native document then re-saved as a new PDF document. That said, you can edit a PDF in a round-about way. Obtain Open Office, down load the pdf editing extension and you can, with some effort, open and edit the PDF as a an Open Office Draw document. That document can then be saved as a new PDF document. Personally I would save all my reports as RTF's then, when I was happy with the formatting, save them as PDF's. Legacy is a Genealogy program which has some nice reports, not a report generating program with mediocre genealogy features. I think it is the best genealogy program available which also has the best compromise as a report generator. With this in mind, experiment with some RTF reports and see if you can't create exactly what you want, which will probably be different from what someone else may desire. -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
