I would love to have the report generator capable to generate a PDF document to create an eBook of a family (which would include each GenoMap and pictures).
I Agree. Anyone can then "write" his own family book and design it in any way he wants... That would be a great thing for GenoPro to do. To be able to design anything in this book. I am not sure that there are many softwares that gives this ability. They do give the ability to select which pre-defined reports will appear in the book, but not to use your own reports.
I have plans to improve the multi-lingual reports. For instance, a single report skin will be capable to support multiple language dictionaries, say LanguageDictionary.xml, LanguageDictionaryHE.xml, LanguageDictionaryFR.xml, and so on. GenoPro will load the proper language dictionary before generating the report. This way, the same skin template can be re-used for multiple languages.
In this way you can solve the problem of the skins changes. If I don't need to translate a specific skin, the skin can be modified and upgraded by GenoPro. Users can then share their skins and it dosnt matter in which language, they orignally had been written...

 Whit each new feature, I like this program even more...
I just hope it'll stay a good way for Dan to live out of it, so he keeps upgrading it with new ideas...
I'm sure, when time comes, if I'll have enough time, I'll sure try to translate skins and other features on my language!!!

This is what so great in Dan's idea. You only have to create LanguageDictionary.xml in your own language and GenoPro will make any report from any skin in your language.

Yes, indeed. The goal is to never duplicate code or data. This is why you can include a .vbs file within the template, and in the future, have multiple dictionaries per skin. GenoPro will also provide a mechanism to share dictionaries between skins. In fact, I plan to make the NameDictionary.xml public on the web with a nice easy web interface so everyone can add/update names. This way, third party tools will be able to download the xml file and use it for other purpose.

This will be an addition to the build-in tool in GenoPro or it will replace it?

The idea is to have a large dictionary of names available for download, so the user has something to start with. The user can have his/her own NameDictionary.xml to take precedence over the global name dictionary.

Do you mean that there will be two namedictionary? the one you download and the one the user defined?

Eventually yes. I will make sure the download is easy for the user and/or automatic. The reason why I use the word "eventually" is because this is a feature in the future. I don't plan to implement this for version 2.0.
