This might be a place for an enhancement to the printing options in Legacy: be able to define printing colors by line as we can define colors by line in Family View - blue is Grandpa A, green is Grandpa B, etc.
This would make printing at home much more expensive for some people - but some of us have printers with separate ink tanks for each color which means that color printing is only slightly more expensive than black (some Canon and Epson models). If you were having the book printed at Kinko's or the like, you would need to see what their prices are for color versus black. Whether other people would want/use this option is something Legacy would have to determine. I think it's probably the easiest way for a child (and some adults) to follow the lines in a text format. And if the child has a Grandpa Greene, be sure that line is printed in green ;-) John > I've been months away from the program and am re-acquainting myself > currently.
