Alex,

I've checked out gramps20, made my fixes, and committed them (and updates
to ChangeLog). The docs for that report should mention some current quirk=
s
(I'm noting them here so I don't forget):

1) The "Use maiden name" checkbox applies to single person names. For the
anniversary entries, I always use the maiden name.

2) If a person has a nickname, that first name will be used.

3) If a person has a nickname with a space in it, that will signal the
calendar that that is the preferred first name AND lastname and will use
that instead of the surname. (Hacky but useful for listing one woman's
lastname in a sea of others that want to use their husband's lastname).

4) The offset option is used to adjust the text up and down. Set it to
zero for proper PDF; set to about -0.5 for the others.

Current TODO list:

1) track down text offset issue in docgen and fix; remove offset option

2) add a "Use Wedding Name, if available" option and method for entering
and identifying that name

3) add a docgen bounding box so that long text will wrap appropriately

Please let me know if you see anything, or if I made any mistakes.

Thanks

-Doug
