I have recently upgraded from version 2 to version 3 and when I export a GEDCOM I no longer get the GEDCOM options dialog to specify encoding and GENCOM type. Am I missing something. I am running 3.03 under Windows Vista. Thanks, Theo |

Im trying to import my gramps data in http://www.familytreefactory.com/ . This tool allows gedcom data for import only. Unfortunately, some media files are not available within FamilyTreeFactory: Gramps gedcom export creates full path of media objects. If one has long path for storing the file, the export has to cut the line and continues the next line with CONC-tag 1 OBJE 2 FORM jpeg 2 TITL Haack, Hermann und Ida 2 FILE D:\Dateien von E und S\Familienforschung\Media\pictures\Hermann und Id 3 CONC a Haack.jpg FamilyTreeFactory is not accepting that CONC-tag. I contacted their support and was told that the CONC-tag following a FILE-tag is NOT a GEDCOM standard and therefore not supported Their recommendation: do the gedcom export without path so one does not need such long filenames. How can I do this in gramps? I remember that a previous version of gramps had gedcom export options, but could not find it. Have nothing found in the wiki Im using gramps 3.2.0 on windows XP (German) Thanks for your help, Eckhard |

Gecom backend has been rewritten for version 3. MARC 8 output is no longer supported. Is anybody still using that?? I believe GRAMPS can read it still though. ANSI is subset of unicode, so if you have only english names that is no problem For export to format's of other programs, as on OSS project we cannot follow evolutions of packages we have no access to. So GRAMPS only exports to the standard now. It does it better than version 2 though.

Thanks. My problem is now when I try to import my GEDCOM into genes reunited I get an error but no explanation of what caused the error. I was going to try to fiddle with the options to see if I could make it work. It worked with V2. I will try contacting the genes reunited web site and see if they can help. They may have a problem at their end. Theo Benny Malengier wrote: > Gecom backend has been rewritten for version 3. > MARC 8 output is no longer supported. Is anybody still using that??

I recently selected the privacy option and generated a gedcom which I sent to the website: http://www.tribalpages.com/ It appeared as a file in their software with first names "living" for living persons (except one!) and apparently the only other significant error was that the name "Sjögren" appeared as "Sjögren". Was that error generated during export or import of the gedcom? I have since learned how to edit the error in TribalPages, so there is no remaining problem for me.

Please, open the GEDCOM file with a UTF-8 capable editor, and see if sjogren is correct there. If the GEDCOM is ok, the error is in the website where you upload If the GEDCOM is not ok, please, open a bug ticket.

Note that the error can also be in your browser not being able to display the character set of the html. In firefox, you can switch that in the view menu. Benny |

Thanks - but Firefox displays the character set correctly - in the TribalPages website I can edit it to the correct spelling using Character map. Both versions show in Firefox.
