There are 4 main categories of reports:

Viewing reports

Reports can be previewed in My Family Tree.  If you want to keep the report for later use, you can either choose to save it to your device or print it using the preview toolbar.

Reports saved to your device can be viewed in all modern web browsers.

Customising saved reports

Any reports saved to your device are valid HTML5 documents.  They can be further customised in a suitable editor.

Privacy

You can use privacy options to remove personal details of living people or people who have been marked as private within My Family Tree.  Selecting the "Hide living people" option prevents export of all information about living people apart from their surname. Selecting the "Hide private information" option prevents export of any information marked as private.

Information about private and living people is always exported in diagnostic reports.
