Custom Sections provide the ability to include user-defined sections of texts
and images within the report; for example a custom-specified Preface or Appendix
section.
7 Family Tree Builder incorporates extremely
powerful image manipulation and management capabilities and The Complete
Genealogy Reporter reflects these capabilities in the Media section as follows:
|
- |
All images (the original images and the
marked faces therein) are exported from Family Tree Builder and will be
processed by The Complete Genealogy Reporter. |
|
- |
Some of the marked faces will be
essentially equivalent to the corresponding original image (with the
edges cropped), and others will be extracted cutouts from a larger
composite image. The Complete Genealogy Reporter examines the size
and position of each marked face within the corresponding original image
and determines whether it appears to be a cropped image or a extracted
image. |
|
- |
By default, the original image from
which a marked face is deemed to have been cropped is excluded from the
media section. This is because the marked face and the original image
are considered to be essentially the same picture. |
|
- |
By default, an extracted marked face is
deemed to be significantly different from the original image, and both
are included in the media section. This is because the original image
may be considered to contain additional graphic information which should
be included the Media Section. For example, the original may include
other members of a family group, or the surrounding context from which
the cutout was extracted. |
|
- |
The inclusion or exclusion of the
original images may be specified differently from the defaults via a
preference option for each category (cropped and extracted). |
|
- |
Images that are Documents ("This image
is a scanned document") or relate to a Place of Rest ("Virtual
Cemetery") are grouped within separate sections from other images. |
