I think the only way to do this is to use tags and export to a new legacy family file.
Tag direct line with tag 1 (or other #). Start with the starting person and tag him, go to his father and tag, go to the grandfather and tag etc. until you reach the oldest generation. Don't tag anyone else. This can be done in a few seconds. Export to a new legacy file and select All records with an individual tag of 1 (or other # you selected) and check Export all Spouses of tagged individuals, Export all Children of tagged individuals and Export all Parents of tagged individuals. Now you have a file with only the direct line descendants in a new legacy file. Make a descendants report in this new file.
