In each of the 5 Scandinavian languages some people carried patronymics and/or
farm names using local name rules? Each area/country used both on occasion.

Yes. There may be many reasons for errors of inclusion and also exclusion.
I have not noticed 'time to post detail' accurate/guessable. Sorry!

I also saw them but had no new valuable information (not) already stated on the
post. Too many negatives?

Stuart,
Elizabeth covers documents and manuscripts. According to you your WWII
discharge is an original document. Check page 868 [EE] in the index for
"original records."

Sorry, Sherry. I'll stay on topic for future threads.
However, I did search for GRO specific lists and couldn't find any.
Could you advise, please - off list.
Thanks

Hi Brian,
Legacy does a great job of nesting the

RTF format. Would a better option instead
of my downloading chapters be for me to
create the entire Descandants Book report,
download it in the RTF format for editing,
then print. This way the TOC, sequence of

You cannot include a document file, like your edited rtf file, in any
Legacy reports directly.
Using the Pub centre you can reserve space in the Legacy report for the
rtf document using the place holder but you will have to manually print
the rtf file outside of Legacy.
The other alternative is t
I believe the original question was about scanning images. Why are you
mixing this up with talk about downloading images?

I may have missed the place to choose discharge records but I don't think
so. SourceWriter does not have a choice in Military records for this

Hello everyone,
I created a Descendants Book report
(which is actually a chapter for a collateral

The reason that some people claim they can only scan an image as one particular
file format is that they are most likely using the proprietary software that
came with the scanner. In such cases, the software is so simplistic and lacking
in options, the image is imported into Windows as a JPG onl
A scanner may give you the option to save a file as a TIFF, but a lot of
websites don't. I checked a few of my favorites.
Ancestry's only option is .jpg.
American Ancestors and Family Search save as .jpg. They don't give you an option
but they do allow you to open it in a photo editor instead.
I've heard this same thing about scanners from my cousin, Sam, who
insists her scanner can only scan pictures as JPG's. I doubt it but I
haven't seen her scanner.
When you scan pictures you're just scanning them. It doesn't have
anything to do with file format. It's when you save them that you cho
When I am working on my Scandinavian lines, I go to customizing and
turn off the "add father's surname" button so I don't have to remove

they left Sweden or Norway they changed their surnames) in the aka
section . Also I add farmn

Personally, the way I change a.pdf to a .jpg is to take a screenshot of the
.pdf and save it as a .jpg. I use Picasa which is *so* easy to edit in and
is free. Other than the usual .jpg loss problems -- which is ordinarily
not a problem in Legacy -- I don't know of any disadvantages.

Do I need a special program to put the pictures into TIFF?
My scanner shows only JPEG and PDF. I have a copier/scanner/fax.
I appreciate all of you who have taken the time to write me. I have Jeff's

Here in Holland, where many people were only been known by givenname and
fathersname before 1811, there are two ways to handle this.
There are users who handle the patronym as a surname, others put the
givenname + fathersname in the givennamefield. Both have their positive
and negative points.
