I recently saw this on Facebook posted by Bruce Buzbee in the RootsMagic User Group and wanted to post it here:
New RootsMagic Update (8.5.0)
- New: Added Publisher to create books
- Fixed: Added confirmation when clearing Source template favorites
- Fixed: FamilySearch events with foreign dates handled properly
- Fixed: Select existing person can now search by alternate name
- Fixed: Source templates list now has a search box
- New: Updated LDS temple list
- Fixed: Graphical reports opened in Word have blank page between each page
- Fixed: Fixed a loop when adding a person with no name
- Fixed: Templates that use Name:Reverse had spurious comma when the person didn't have a given name
- Fixed: Minor bugs
- Fixed: Cosmetic issues
The BIG deal with this update is that they added Publisher to create books. RootsMagic Version 7 had Publisher but it needed to be updated for RootsMagic Version 8.
I tried it out with a "book" listing my Ahnentafel for 15 generations. Here is page 1 of the book:
This particular "book" is 219 pages, including a title page, Table of Contents, the Ahnentafel, A name index and a place index. The file size is 1,396 kb saved as a PDF file.
=============================================
Disclosure: I have used RootsMagic since Version 3 in about 2008. I have purchased each version from RootsMagic, usually at a conference, to manage my genealogy and family history research.
