Re: FH7

In Previus versions of FH I have had a tab in the property box for "Associated persons" This was very useful when for example finding a grandchild on a census when I did not know who the parents are. Version 7 seems to have lost that functionality. Does anyone know how to customise the pro...

inclusion of .pdf documents in narrative report

I have been trying to include everything I know about an individual in a narrative report but after tweaking the report for some time realised that the information I wanted to include was a .pdf document. Is there any way to include such documents in a similar way to pictures
