Family Historian User Group

I see the FHUG website includes an advert for this program. Has anyone here used it? What can it do that FH reports can't? Is it worth getting?

I have just bought a copy, it does a different sort of report, I am getting ready for a family re-union this weekend, after that I will try and post a sample. You can download and try the program for free, no ad's or pop ups. I like the mini trees it does and the quick method of gathering several reports together.

Although the narrative reports are not up to the FH standard, the author has just added support for the 'cut outs' of images which FH uses so for a quick report of a single persons family from FH it works for me.

Try it, if you like it get a license (with the current exchange rate it was just over £15 including VAT), otherwise just un-install it.

I have just downloaded and registered the program. As Jane says the output is very different from the native Family Historian narrative report, but it produces an interesting summary.
If you are not careful in selection of the information to be included the output can reult in an overweighted report.
If I included Media for one of my ancestors I ended up with 15 pages of pictures. But the options are very flexible and I am just beginning to sort some of them out. The handling of pictures is I think unique in add-on programs in that it handles Family Historian picture links exactly even if individual selections are made from a general picture, as Jane points out.

I've tried this as well.
I like the combination of narrative report with diagrams and photos. The referencing of people and the diagram pages is good, although the little diagrams don't use the page space very efficiently.
Has anyone noticed the quality of the photos in the pdf output. They come out very pixelated, or is that just me?

I find mine are fine as long as the originals are good. Make sure you don't have 'compression' turned on for the PDF output.
