    Family Group Sheet

    Hi, I am trying to produce and save Family group sheets in the "classic format made popular by the LDS" using my iMac.. My procedure: select "Reports" - select "Family Group Sheet" - destination is set to printer with layout at "default - select "print" - select "PDF open in Preview" or "save as PDF".
    Either way, I end up with an almost perfect Group Sheets except they seem to be missing the border line running down the left hand side of the page. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I do not have a printer connected to the iMac if that makes any difference! I have attached an example. Any help gratefully appreciated. Thank you.
    PS when I preview this post the left hand line is OK, but when I open the file in preview it's not there????

    Just found if I export the PDF to a jpeg file the left hand line appears but the quality of the image is very poor.

    Reunion does actually gather information from the Print Driver or macOS. However, if no printer is available to be connected to your Mac, please try this...

    1. Open your family file and choose Reports -> Family Group Sheet.

    2. Then, choose File -> Page Setup.

    3. Next, enter a scale of 99 or 98 (instead of 100%).

    4. Afterward, click Print and select the option to Open in Preview from the PDF menu.

    I'm suggesting this because I originally saw a very faint line on the left side of a Family Group Sheet when no specific printer (or an unconnected printer) was selected in the Page Setup window. However, after adjusting the scale to 99 in the Page Setup window (Step 3), the line appeared as it should in the PDF Preview of the Family Group Sheet (Step 4).

    I hope you find this information helpful

      Thank you Deb. That solved the problem. Will I have to remember this, in case for some reason the Page Setup scale reverts to 100%, or will this be sorted in a maintenance update. Thanks.
