viii Introduction • Enhance Your Family History—Add family photos, record images, or scans of family heirlooms to your tree. And, you only need to add each media item to your tree once; then, you can easily link each item to as many people in your tree as you’d like. • Create Charts and Reports—Enter names and other information just once, and Family Tree Maker uses the information to create as many trees and reports as you wish. Let your creativity soar by adding pictures and customizing the formatting to create heirloom-quality trees that you can share with others. • Search for Ancestors—Verify dates, locations, and other facts you’ve entered and search for new information online. The powerful Web Search feature will point you to data on websites such as Ancestry.com. Locate a family member and then use a Web Merge wizard to add your findings directly into your family tree.
Chapter One Setting Up the Software This chapter shows you how to install the Family Tree Maker software on your computer and gives you a quick introduction on getting help as you’re working in Family Tree Maker. System Requirements The computer equipment you will need is shown on the next page. Keep in mind that the more family information you enter, the greater the amount of free hard drive space and available RAM you will need. If you plan to include many images or videos in your trees, you will need a substantial amount of hard drive space. If your system does not meet these minimum requirements, we cannot guarantee that the program will function correctly. You will need to upgrade your system to meet these requirements if you want to use this version of Family Tree Maker.
