About a year ago I made the permanent switch to Mac and now my must-have program is Reunion 9 software.
I’m not a power user yet but here are some of the features that make managing my family trees so great.
- Clear display of a family unit
- Customizable display (I like to display baptism info simply because I can tell at a glance if that information is still needing to be found)
- Easy creation and merging of sources
- Adding children from the index is very helpful
- Ability to display age wherever needed
- Highly flexible reports
- Exporting reports as PDFs ( I think this is a Mac feature that makes it so easy!)
- Ability to bookmark an individual

I have a MacOS 10.5.7 and my brother has Family Tree Maker with an extensive database of our family on his Windows PC. I want to transfer his info onto my Mac. Has anyone been able to transfer Family Tree Maker data into the Reunion 9 program, or does one have to re-enter all the data by hand?
