Ray, No need to buy additional software to convert to pdf. Legacy can do that for you. From the Picture Gallery where you have your 6 pictures, select the "Print Photo Album" button. This will allow you to create a photo album that can be saved in pdf format. Once you have it saved, you can attach it to the source. In the picture gallery, choose the "File" option to attach the pdf file to your source.
I use the photo album quite a bit to put multi-page images into one document. It really is quite flexible. -Anne Mamiya -----Original Message----- From: Ray Mechler [mailto:rmech...@austin.rr.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2011 12:42 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Changing Photo Link in Source Detail Richard- Thanks for the response. You are correct that I do not have Access or Itools (I have dabbled in Access though I opted not to buy the software with my current home PC since I recognize that I am far from competent with it). I like the notion of creating one multipage PDF document with the images of all 6 pages of my document. That would certainly simplify the task ahead of me. However I do not currently have a robust tool to convert JPEGs to PDFs. The freeware that I downloaded does not have the option to combine multiple JPEGs into a single PDF. By the way, does anyone have a suggestion of a good PDF converter? Finally it seems that the best solution might be for me to do as you have done and to attach my photos or PDF to the Master Source and then reference the page in the Source Detail. I was hoping to use the Master Source to reference multiple documents that I might find in the online collection that I was mining. As it turns out I have only uncovered 2 relevant documents so I would only have to create 2 similar Master Sources. I suppose that is not a great loss and it will keep me from having to manually revise over 300 citations (x 6 JPEGs for each citation!). Thanks, again.

If so I have no suggestion. I sometimes attach a multipage PDF document once to the Source and then give a page # in Source Detail with no further attachment. -- Richard Van Wasshnova On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 10:07 AM, Ray Mechler <rmech...@austin.rr.com> wrote: > I recently renamed some photos of a multipage document that I have linked to > a heavily used Source Detail (I use the Multimedia tab to link the photos). > Of course, this resulted in broken links for every citation using that > source, in this case, 15 pages worth on the �Missing Multimedia Files� > report. > > > > Is there a way to restore the links to the newly named photos without having > to go to each citation? > > > > Ray > Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
