Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | To pull together a family history, there are two major tasks to complete. The first, obviously, is the lengthy research and writing stage. After the history has been written, the next task is to make it actually look like a history. To do this, you can either consult an experienced layout design professional, or turn into a designer yourself. Both are viable options depending on your budget, computer equipment, computer experience, willingness to learn, and time commitment. The layout of a family history is often not even considered until the very last. Ironically, this last stage will either provide a glorious finish to years of work or stop you dead in your tracks. While printing a letter on your printer at home may be a relatively simple task, successfully printing a fully formatted family history (with table of contents, page numbers, chapter starts, headers, footers, photographs, etc.) on a publisher’s equipment can be a frustrating experience. There are important technical considerations you must be prepared to face or have someone else face for you. |
