Hi Ron,

Is it ok to have a birth, marriage or death certificate with a .jpg extension?

Ron,

I understood from your first post that the problem seems to be that Charting
is not recognising the image. There are usually one of three reasons for
this a) It is not where Charting thinks it is b) it is not what Charting
thinks it is eg a BMD image with a JPG extension or c) the image is corrupt.

You do not say whether you have checked, as I suggested.
