I know FH only arrived this morning but...

I used to use PAF and have exported from there as a Gedcom. This gives the multi-mrdia objects as fields...

but...

to enable the advanced features of FH's photo handling, these need to be stored as records (is that the right way round?)...

Is there a method for automatically converting (and maintaining the links to individuals?)

Thanks in advance for any advice...

I haven't seen a paf file with multimedia, but I suspect it depends on the number of objects you have attached as to if it is worth the time to work out a conversion. To my knowledge I have not seen any automated routines for this.

I exported from PAF as an ANSI GDECOM file as this seemed to be the only one of the options that FH took any notice of at all in terms of the multimedia links.

All this technical stuff leaves be a bit cold as I'm very much one of 'the paper generation'.
