I would strongly recommend an ISO standard format rather than a proprietary one such as Microsoft's misnamed Office Open XML.Both format are public and many converter will exist, the idea is generate the report in the format that will be the most used... Microsoft is planning to submit its Office Open XML document format technology to the International Standards Organization for adoption as an international standard in time for the release of Office 12, according to this piece.

Thanks for the input Ron. We want to use a format available to everyone.

Instead, we are considering generating PDFs or XML-based Microsoft Office documents. The new Office 12 uses XML as its native file format.I would strongly recommend an ISO standard format rather than a proprietary one such as Microsoft's misnamed Office Open XML. Office Document Format (ODF) is an open ISO standard XML document format and is used by OpenOffice. Not many of us will want to move to or can afford Office 12. OpenOffice is free (donations accepted) and is compatible to a large extent with MS Office format documents and files can be opened in MS format and saved as ODF or vice versa).

I have two questions concerning the topic:- when we can expect some kind of printable report? - is there other way how to use XML-based report in case I do not want to buy MS-Office? (I have Office97 and 2000 and do not need any new version), is the XML report compatible with OpenOffice?

There was once an option to generate an rtf report. Is this ability will be back in the future? We are not sure GenoPro will ever generate RTF reports. Generating RTF with Unicode (non-English) is quite difficult.. this would would require considerable time and dedicated routines for generating RTF content. Instead, we are considering generating PDFs or XML-based Microsoft Office documents. The new Office 12 uses XML as its native file format.

Printing the tree is fine, but is there a way to print all the pages of verbage about each person? There is no easy way for this. You are welcome to print the HTML pages of the generated report... or teach some basic computer skill to the person you are sending the family tree.
