I have many pictures attached to the people in my family tree. When I
print reports, no mater what I do with the check boxes in the print
dialog box, the pictures don't print. Is there a way to get them to print?

Several days ago, I asked the question below but have received no
feedback. Should I have perhaps asked what are my print options once I
have my research as complete as I choose? This my first exploration in
to a program of this type

Hi,

I suppose we need more details!
Where do you want to see pictures ?
What is the format on output ?
Do you see any picture or just want to see all pictures, like a gallery ?

Detailed textual reports provide option for printing or not the first picture attached to the individual. Narrative Web report also print pictures.

Regards,
Jérôme

So far, the only print reports that I have been able to make produce
anything is the Reports > graphical reports > Ancestor tree. That
prints the same structure as the Ancestor view. In MY tree, I have
pictures attached to many of the people on the tree. But when the
report prints, those pictures that show up on the Ancestor view, don't
carry over to the printed report. Is there a way to get those pictures
to print with/on the report?
Is this where I should be looking to print my outputs or is there
another area that I am unaware of for better and more complete print
results?

Yes: you need to make a Feature Request [1]. In the request, be a
specific as you can as to where you would like to see pictures. For
example, you could take an existing report and arrange it so that
pictures could be inserted. Or you might design a new report from
scratch. If you can provide a sample (for example, made in OpenOffice
or Word) that would be a great help to the programmer. Then a
programmer can take your request, and write code that will implement
your feature.

You'll need to make an account there, and then "Report Issue" and
select "Feature Request".

Reports > Graphs > Relationship Graph can also show the primary image
associated with an individual. Make sure the thumbnail option is
selected on the 'Report Options' tab. You also have a choice as to
where the thumbnail goes (above the name or beside the name).

Well I must not be doing something right. I found all "buttons" as you
described, but printing from the Reports > Graphical reports > ancestor
tree, still no thumbnail pictures. I can''t print from the Reports >
Graphs > Relationship Graph dialog box as there in no print option. I
tried changing the thumbnail position along with checking the thumbnail
box and still no luck.
Could we be talking about different versions of Gramps? I am using
3.2.3-1 which I got from the Ubuntu repositories.

3.2.3-1 which I got from the Ubuntu repositories.

Into a console, try this:

sudo apt-get install graphviz

Note, if you are using Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10, you can download and
install a more recent versions of gramps: 3.2.5!

The 'Include thumbnail images of people' option (or something like that)
under the Report Options tab:
Loading Image...

does not work after the report generation ?

Under Paper Options, what is your output format ?

Peter and Jerome,
Thanks for steering me to the additional programs I need. I was
unaware. That certainly would change the procedure. I'll load,
Graphviz, ghostxcript, and probably inkscape and see where that gets me.

I'll report back.

Note that the detailed individual report shows picture for the normal odf
output. You can select to run it with a filter, eg, all people in your tree.
