Same issue here!! I have a tree on Ancestry but decided to move away (progress) to independent software and have succesfully transferred my tree to Family Historian 6 (free trial). Slowly getting used to it! i had loads of additional text added to census and BMD entries on Ancestry, which have copied across and have now discovered how to show any that i want in the FH reports. So it was looking like FH for me.
But i've just realised that it doesn't offer a tree, which i would like to be able to include in my reports (i find it much easier to visualise).
Also as it's PC based I can't use it on my tablet when visiting archives etc so will need to keep my Ancestry tree going too, at least until i have a break or decide i've done enough.
Is there a way of adding trees to a report, or would i need to create them elsewhere and add as a picture? I'll keep playing with the FH trial until it expires but any suggestions re trees welcome.
Many thanks,
Deirdre
Edited to add: maybe i could get around it by creating individual generation reports in FH6 then combining the pdfs in something like one note (not used that yet either but use all the other ms office bits!) and i could then insert pages after each generation with scanned charts from ancestry and add other pics i hope to find, eg churches and villages.
