I believe RootsMagic will directly import from Legacy - no need for an intermediate GEDCOM file.

If RootsMagic is installed on the same computer and your images linked in Legacy remain where they are, there will be links included in your GEDCOM file used to move your Legacy data. Once imported into RootsMagic, this program will find the images, based on the links. If you then, at some point, move or rename these linked images, you will encounter the same situation as you would in Legacy. RootsMagic, like Legacy, only links to the images.

    I know this is off topic, but when you migrate from Legacy to
    Roots Magic, is there a way to transfer everything, meaning what's
    in the Media Gallery? The only way I know how to transfer to
    another platform like Roots Magic is a gedcom and from what I
    understand, media does not get included.

        Yes, that is the platform I'll be using. RM8 seems to be a
        significant improvement over RM7. Its global search and
        replace feature will allow me to easily correct the spelling
        errors caused by the lack of unicode support in Legacy.

            Just to close the loop on my question regarding unicode
            and Legacy, I received this response from Legacy Customer
            Support...

            /We have not been told the full features of Legacy 10 and
            you are correct; nothing is set in stone.  That being
            said, I am pretty confident that full Unicode support will
            not be in Legacy 10.  Full Unicode support would require a
            complete rewrite of Legacy using a different coding base. 
            I have not been told of any plans for a full rewrite in
            Legacy 10./

            So it looks like I need to migrate my tree to another
            platform...

                Legacy users,

                I have a question about Legacy and GEDCOM exports.

                It appears that the most recent version of Legacy 9 is
                9.0.0.*393*. I am using Legacy 9.0.0.*339* so I plan
                to upgrade to get to the latest version.

                When I export a GEDCOM file, I see these records at
                the top that indicate the file was written by Legacy 9:

                0 HEAD

                1 SOUR Legacy

                *2 VERS 9.0*

                That seems correct.

                However, another Legacy user sent me a GEDCOM file
                with this version information:

                0 HEAD

                1 SOUR Legacy

                *2 VERS 10.0*

                **

                *Is there a Legacy 10?*I looked on the
                LegacyFamilyTree.com site and I don't see any mention
                of it.

                **
