The "DOC 00008" is what I put in the File ID field in Legacy.

Here is a search for "fred crighton" using the people index of RDF:

  Fred Crighton's family Bible                        DOC 00008       (    )

4 Crighton, Arthur Edwin                                         M    1563
  Birth          14 Jul 1905        RSA, TVL, Johannesburg
                                                              /      /
  Fred Crighton's family Bible                        DOC 00008       (    )

Note that it has picked up the "fred" in "Wilfred"

But it also has the DOC number which I have put in the File ID field in
Legacy.

The number in the top right-hand corner is the RIN of that person, which also
appears in Legacy (which is why I never reorganise RINs in Legacy, and never
was even tempted to use FTM).
