You didn't mention which version of FTM you are using so I'm assuming it is a fairly recent version i.e. FTM-2005 or later.

If you click on help and type in Picture/Object Insert it will tell you how to insert a picture into Scrapbook.

As far as I can see you could print the picture if you are creating a book rather than a chart.  If you click on Books from the toolbar menu and then New Book.  I think you can include scrapbook as something to include with the book.  You may need to select Custom Report and fiddle around with that to get all the items you require.

I have FTM 2005---if you bring up the person on the family page and left click on their name and then left click on the little picture that says 'scrapbook' underneath the personal details it brings up another page with a 'picture' frame on it. Right click on the frame and it gives you options on where to install your photo from.  Poli.
