Re: Additional Untitled Sources
Very useful diagram, but I think the connector between Citation and Source Record is reversed.

Re: FH7 report paragraph fix - new version v7.0.1.1
Installing v7.0.1.3 did not require a reboot, so that's an improvement, I suppose.

Re: Setting up a list of those people on my tree,who are in a particular census.
very simple Fact Query prompts for year and gives a list of people with a Census fact for that year. There is plenty of scope for refinement.

Re: Associated Person feature
That Plugin certainly needs better error handling for the final input dialog , but I could find no way of ending it that caused FH to close.

Re: Question marks appearing in text
I loaded Lorna's Test Project.ged in FH, deleted the question marks, and they did not reappear.
I also looked at the GEDCOM file in PSPad's Hex editor and the smart quotes and question marks all had the expected coding.

Re: Question marks appearing in text
I was on FH 7.0.0.10 so I've now updated (taking only a few minutes) to FH 7.0.1.2 (evidently the current version). The smart quotes are still being displayed correctly with no extraneous “?” on screen or in a report.

Re: Question marks appearing in text
Smart quotes are just UTF-8 characters like any others and can easily be typed using alt-0147 and alt-0148 (or alt-0145 and alt-0146 for single quotes). Whether typed by hand or imported from a Word document or a web page, I find they are always displayed correctly in FH7, as well as they were forme...

Re: Question marks appearing in text
I've just checked my GEDCOM file, and it contains a few examples of “smart” quotes, some from as far back as 2009. They've always displayed correctly (with no extraneous “?”) in FH6 and in FH7.

Re: V7 PDF creation very slow, creating huge files
FH Diagrams (and FH Help for that matter) can all be printed/saved to PDFs with searchable text. And this problem with Reports and Books is new to FH7.

Re: No searchable text in PDF reports
I agree with RS3100. I have also tried a variety of PDF printers. The problem is not within NovaPDF. CP have accidentally or otherwise changed the way reports and books are output from FH for printing or saving as PDF. And I've tried the RTF route, but the printed layout is significantly inferior.
