What setting are you using for picture reduction width? The options are 200, 
400, 800 pixels or original size. Spouse pictures are essential for any 
family book. Sometimes I use clip art to identify an individual who has no 
picture.

The family intended for a Narrative has tiny oval individual pictures, 8 
inch high columns and six inch wide sources as well as full page items like 
maps. It would be easier to plan large event pictures with a non-Legacy 
application and separate files, leaving just the small or medium size 
individual pictures in a PDF report. -- Elizabeth

I've found my photos display closer to their original size (or maybe the 
actual size - haven't checked that closely) when embedded in rtf file from 
within Legacy. For instance, the headstone you mention covers a third of a 
standard letter size page, when embedded in a rtf file. Can certainly read 
the inscription now. :-)

Until Legacy allows images to be displayed and printed in reports within 
Legacy, at the size we attach, it will take an extra effort to create the 
report you're seeking.

I think, to get the results you're after, you might want to designate a 
practice family, then determine the correct image sizes for head and 
shoulder, headstones and full page records. Create a rtf file and check to 
see how they display. Once you know what size each type of image should be, 
size them accordingly before attaching in Legacy. This way, when you want to 
share or print a rtf report with your preferred image sizes, they will embed 
and display and/or print at the desired size.

One problem right now. The photo(s) for the spouse of the focus person for 
the report are not being embedded in the rtf file. I'm sure it will be 
fixed, but don't know when.
