Since none of my photographs imported from FTM I have been going through the
painstaking process of manually moving them to a file and then attaching
them in TMG as external exhibits. Then I tried to print a narrative report
and selected photos and to embed them. The report generated okay, but no
photos. I assume that external exhibits can be printed in a report or is
this an incorrect assumption? Should I make them internal exhibits? I
recall reading something several months ago about external vs. internal
exhibits and if I recall the gist of the discussion correctly, I decided
that external was the best way to go.

Also, how do you attach a "general" exhibit to your dataset? My ultimate
goal is to put together a book on my family and I want to include photos and
copies of as much of the documentation that I have that I want to scan into
general exhibits.

Any advice appreciated.
