Family Directory

NOT just another 'address book,' Family Directory can print a booklet Directory directly from FileMaker Pro. It stores names, addresses, and more. It is specifically designed to print up to 200 addresses (with all info) or up to 400 addresses (with less info) - in landscape mode. It prints on both sides of 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheets of paper that, when folded and center stapled, will form a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch Directory booklet that lists addresses alphabetically by name. Some page layouts will print more information per address with a lower maximum number of addresses. It might be used for other types of group Directories, but it is particularly oriented towards groups of relatives or family members.

General Directory

2.0 is in development (1.1 was Mac only and feature deficient; it has been discontinued in the meantime).
