==Languages==

* Multiple languages and cultures support is mature.

** Translations exist for 37 40 languages + 1 Custom Language (See the [[Gramps translations]])

** Gramps has been designed so that new translations can easily be added with little development effort. If you are interested in participating please contact us.

** Relationship calculators available in four languages

==Reports==

[[Image:RelationshipChartDescendants.png|right|thumb|200px|An example descendant chart]]

Generate brief or detailed reports for the ancestors or descendants of an individual.

* Multiple styles of reports are currently available by default. Users can also create their own [[Gramps_5.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Customize_report_output_formats|custom styles]].

* Eight output formats are supported by Gramps: PDF, OpenDocument, HTML, Rich Text Format (RTF), Latex, and plain text.

* Custom reports can be created by advanced users under the "plugin" system which allows the sharing of custom report styles between users.

* Book report allows the user to collect a variety of reports in a single document, which in turn is easier to distribute.

~~[[Image:RelationshipChartDescendants.png|right|thumb|200px|An example descendant chart]]~~ Charts and Graphs - Create graphical Ancestor and ~~Descendent~~ Descendant charts in several formats.

* Box and Fan charts are available, see eg [[Howto: Make a relationship chart | here]].

*[[Sample reports]]
