report in a PDF file.

Method #1:
* Reports > Chart Reports > Individual Chart
* On right side bar, close to the bottom, just above Report Settings,
select the radial button next to "PDF File"
* Click "Create" button & follow prompts

Method #2: (my preference)
* Reports > Chart Reports > Individual Chart
* On right side bar, in the bottom 1/2 of screen, select "Screen/Printer"
radial button
* Click "Preview" button at top of right side bar
When I am sure that this is the report I want to save...
*click the "Create PDF" button on the right side bar & follow prompts

Hope this helps,
Evelyn

Are you typing in the name of the pdf you want to create when asked? 
Until you tell Legacy what file name to use it will sit there waiting 
for you to type in the name. Maybe that is the step you are missing.

 5. memory and disk space on your PC.

I have just run a Descendent Narrative on my
Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, which took a few minutes and
generated a 145 page PDF, with embedded photos, for about 1400
people. Interestingly, some of the images are missing, which I
suspect that might be because they are shared from a person not
included in the report (wife's father censuses etc).

to LEGACY

I would like to set up a PDF, preferred or a Text File. Have tried
both and when trying to set up all that happens is 'collecting'
that never completes or stops, therefore no results.

I am trying to save and print an INDIVIDUAL report.

I apologize for not leaving complete information!

What do I need to do? I am puzzled. I have used Legacy for
years and wondering if I am skipping a step.  Baby step
assistance would be appreciated.

Re: [LegacyUG] PDF or Text File, unable to save

[Cynthia N. Russell]

I am running a 5 generation Ancestor Report on one individual, sorry I have
not been clear headed. And then I decided to run Individual Reports for
each of the 5 relatives in the Ancestor Report.  I could not complete a PDF
for any of these reports.
I apologize!
