Jenny, thanks -I'm sure you are correct; nice people have explained how to tag all of the tree on one side - eg cousin x wants a copy of 'their' part of the tree; It is also very useful to be able to print out whole (not just direct ancestor) trees, both for myself and for stray relatives who ask.
I use the graphical program, GenoPro, for visual trees (I have different branches on different Excel-type tabbed pages, hyperlinked as appropriate), and just print to Acrobat; instant! But it would be nice to print out reports from Legacy from time to time (tagging appropriate individuals.....). Please don't spend ages on this. I have a method which works well; I am interested in researching my family, not getting a PhD in using Legacy!!! The user group is very helpful, but it does seem to me sometimes that using Legacy becomes almost an end in itself, rather than a useful tool for recording genealogy. I await appalled replies....
