The amount of available reports in GRAMPS is huge and could be overwhelming at first glance. The different subsections describe the various possibilities and options:
  
==Common Options==
 
  
* pid: The center person for the filter (ex: ''Smith, Edwin Michael'')
+
[[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 1|Generating Reports]]: This first subsection gives you some general remarks.
* filter: Determines what people are included in the report
 
# Entire Database
 
# Descendants of Smith, Edwin Michael
 
# Descendant Families of Smith, Edwin Michael
 
# Ancestors of Smith, Edwin Michael
 
# People with common ancestor with Smith, Edwin Michael
 
  
 +
[[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 2|Substitution Values]]: you can use some handy values in your reports.
 +
=Books=
 +
[[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 3#Books|The book report]] creates a single document containing a collection of graphical and textual reports.
  
==Text Reports==
+
=Graphical Reports=
 +
Graphical reports represent information in forms of charts and graphs.
  
Text reports represent the desired information as formatted text. Most of the options are common among text reports, therefore they will be described only once, at the end of this section.  
+
==Ancestor Tree==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Ancestor Tree|Ancestor Tree report]] generates the chart of people who are ancestors of the Active Person.
 +
==Calendar==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Calendar|Calendar report]] produces a calendar with birthdays and anniversaries on a page by month.
 +
==Descendant Tree==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Descendant Tree|Descendant Tree report]] generates a graph of people who are descendants of the Active Person.
 +
==Fan Chart==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Fan Chart|Fan Chart report]] produces a chart resembling a fan, with Active Person in the center, parents the semicircle next to it, ans so on, for a total of five generations.
 +
==Statistics Chart==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Statistics Chart|Statistics Chart report]] can collect and display a wealth of statistical data about your database.
 +
==Timeline Chart==
 +
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 4#Timeline Chart|Timeline Chart report]] outputs the list of people with their lifetimes represented by intervals on a common chronological scale.
  
===Common options===
+
=Graphs=
 
+
These reports are related to GraphViz.
Common options for text reports are the filename of the output, the format of the output, selected style, page size and orientation. For HTML reports, there is no page information. Instead, HTML options include the choice of the HTML template, either available in GRAMPS or a custom template defined by you. Optionally, the reports can be immediately opened with the default application.
+
==Family Lines Graph==
 
+
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 5#Family Lines Graph|Family Lines Graph.py]] plugin was created to generate easy-to-follow graphs. Note that FamilyLines does not display all of the people in the database -- instead, this plugin generates smaller family trees, with many options to try and restrict the number of people included.
{{man tip|Tip|The options used in reports are persistent: each report remembers its options used last time.}}
+
A typical use of this plugin is to generate simplified graphs printed on large plotters.
 
+
==Hourglass Graph==
The options which are specific to a given report will be described directly in that report's entry and on [[Plugins_Command_Line|Command line references]].
+
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 5#Hourglass Graph|Hourglass Graph]] generate an hourglass graph using the GraphViz generator.
 
+
==Relationship Graph==
The following text reports are currently available in GRAMPS:
+
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 5#Relationship Graph|Relationship Graph]] creates a complex relationship graph in GraphViz format and then converts into graphical output running it through the GraphViz dot tool behind the scene.
  
 +
=Text Reports=
 +
Text reports represent the desired information as formatted text.
 
===<u>Ahnentafel Report</u>===
 
===<u>Ahnentafel Report</u>===
 
+
The [[Gramps 3.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 6#Ahnentafel Report|Ahnentafel Report]] lists the Active Person and his or her ancestors along with their vital data. The people are numbered in an establish standard called 'Ahnentafel'.
This report lists the Active Person and his or her ancestors along with their vital data.  
 
 
 
The people are numbered in a special way which is an established standard called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnentafel Ahnentafel].
 
 
 
The Active Person is given number 1. His or her father and mother have numbers 2 and 3, respectively.
 
 
 
This rule holds for every person while going back in generations: father's parents are numbered 4 and 5, and mother's parents are numbered 6 and 7, fathers always numbered with even and mothers with odd numbers.
 
 
 
Therefore, for any person having number N in this tree, the numbers of father and mother are 2N and 2N+1, respectively.
 
 
 
    person = n
 
    father = 2n
 
    mother = 2n+1
 
 
 
Each entry will consist of a single paragraph, and should contain the following contents:
 
* Person number.

* Birth Information, if available.
 
* Death Information, if available.
 
* Burial Information, if available
