Media in CD files

Post by hathor »

Having finally fixed a non-FH problem with my CD writer, I thought I was now ready to 'publish' my family history research to share it among the family by creating CD files. I managed to get a draft version done, and have looked at the content via Preview before burning it to CD.

I have concluded I am not ready, after all!

Is there any way I can make the images large enough to view, rather than the thumbnails which appear as source references at the end of the report?

Have a look at Knowledge Base article on how to Make a Family Tree CD/DVD or Website.
Especially, the Step 3 – Choose Report Template Pictures and Sources section.
This leads on to Tips and Tricks and Popups with advice on Multimedia image popups.

If you upgrade to FH V5, it not only offers MUCH improved Family Tree CD/DVD & Website features, including Multimedia image popups, but also offers the Improve Website or CD DVD HTML Plugin with even more features.

Thanks for that. I will go and do my homework and report back if I get stuck.
Thanks also for the ultra-fast response; nearly as good as having a tutor! Much appreciated.
