Because of the complicated structure of the data in Gramps, the data is output in a very structured way, so it may not be in an elegant narrative format! It could be regarded as an end-user report that can be used for diagnostic purposes, or as a debug report that can also be used by an end-user!

* Name Format: Select the format to display the names. Choose from '''Default''' / Surname, Given Suffix / Given Surname Suffix / Given / Main Surnames, Given Patronymic Suffix / SURNAME, Given (Common)
== Known issues Relation to other reports == There are a number of reports that output information about individuals, for example: * The [https://gramps-project.org/gramps-manual/2.2/en/ch03s09.html#rep-text|Individual Summary Report] apparently produced a detailed summary on the active person. The report apparently included all the facts known to the database about that person. This was available in Gramps 2.2, but is no longer available.* The [[Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_6#Complete_Individual_Report|Complete Individual Report]] provides individual summaries similar to that of the Individual Summary Report.* The [[Gramps 5.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 6#Descendant Report|Descendant Report]] presents the descendants of the Active Person with a brief description in intended style.* The [[Gramps 5.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 6#Detailed Ancestral Report|Detailed Ancestral Report]] covers in detail the ancestors of the Active Person, including a range of vital data as well as marriages.* The [[Gramps 5.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 6#Detailed Descendant Report|Detailed Descendant Report]] covers in detail the descendants of the Active Person by generation, following the genealogical tradition of textual descendant reports by generation. It aims to provide all important features expected to be found in these classic descendency formats and has received influence from various sources.* The [[Gramps_5.1_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'.* The [[Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_6#Family_Group_Report|Family Group Report]] creates a family group report, showing information on a set of parents and their children.* The [[Gramps 5.1 Wiki Manual - Reports - part 7#Narrated Web Site|Narrated Web Site report]] generates a web site (that is, a set of linked web pages), for a set of selected individuals.
== Report implementation design ==
The style of the notes themselves is based on a structured presentation of the data that is stored for Citations and Sources, rather than one of the specific document types in the Chicago Manual of Style. There is no separate bibliography (i.e. no separate summary of all the documents that are references).
== Known issues ==
The Gramps report document infrastructure may not always generate images in some of the document formats. This is not a problem with the addon, but rather a problem with the infrastructure. The HTML output format seems to be the most reliable in outputting images.
