I AGREE you said.... "As far as the “we would not know where to put them” is concerned, I find that somewhat comical as they certainly know where to put the Birth, Death, and Marriage Note. I would suggest to put the associated pictures immediately following."
OR at least give us the OPTION (via a check box in the report setup area) to insert any photos attached to birth , marriage, death, burial to print along with the notes And if you dont check the box to include them, Legacy acts as it does now...... I see this as a MAJOR issue that needs a resolution in Legacy otherwise great text reports. Just my own opinion. Jay On Sat, Aug 10, 2013 at 11:00 AM, Brian L.
