Belated thanks to Leon and Cathy who replied to my question about saving Legacy charts as tif files.
Just letting you know that all the charts are now saved as tif. I also found the ones I had already saved and now they are all together. Thanks again Jan From: Cathy Pinner [mailto:genea...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, 8 January 2016 12:00 AM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charts: converting LWCX files to JPG or TIF Jan, If the file the chart was based on is in a different place (which is likely given what you've said) then I don't think charting will find it unless it's back where it expects. That said, I'm finding old charts will open if you use the Open from within the program under the icon top left - you can't edit them but you can publish. Cathy Janet McLeod wrote: Thanks Leon. I think it will be OK. Works well with some, some give me an error message about missing files which don’t seem to be missing at all when I check, so I think I’ll leave it til tomorrow when I’m more alert…bedtime here.

I have nearly 50 small charts, (A4 size) many of which I used in a book last year, and which I had used mostly as TIF. Now almost all of them appear as LWCX files in Documents on my computer…including o ne which I created the other day, and which I thought I had Published and selected as TIF. (Computer has had a disc replacement since I created the earlier charts.) To convert them now to TIF, do I need to open them individually and use Publish, or is there a way I can convert all the LWCX files to TIF at once? Internet searching seems to suggest that these files are absolutely unique to Legacy, and I need to find an app to open them, and that they can’t find such an app. If I need to ask this question in Support please let me know…I am new here.
