The current version (9) allows for several modifications - number of generations, removing duplication, privacy filtering, inclusion of sources or preferred photograph, layout variation (choice of the specific data fields to be included) and choice of document type (Word, RTF, plain text, Web).Kathryn Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508373744866161837noreply@blogger.com
