Question: I have clicked 'Save as RTF' but nothing happens
Answer: Most likely, your browser has identified the file as potentially dangerous. You will have the option of accepting these types of files. Once you have done this, click the Save as RTF a second time. The pedigree will either opern up in Word automatically or prompt you as to whether you want to save or open the file..


Question:I've saved a Magic Millions or NZ Bloodstock style pedigree but the bolding doesn't come out right.
Answer: Magic Millions and New Zealand Bloodstock pedigrees use a special font set to produce the high light/bold contrast which is a feature of them. Please contact us to receive a copy of the required fonts and the instructions on how to download them.


Question: I'm having trouble with pdf pedigrees in Firefox.
Answer: There is a known issue in Firefox 3.5.3 with regard to the pdf reader. It effectively stops other normal functions on the page from working correctly until you click a pedigree option. That sets in train a series of steps which clears the problem. Firefox 3.6.2 worked correctly, and we anticipate the error introduced in 3.6.3 will be fixed at the next release.
