We email a Family Ordinance Request (FOR) to a family member and they take the FOR to have the cards printed. You can do this because the process to print a FOR creates a .pdf file which you can save to your computer and then email. You see the pdf file as the final step before actually printing the FOR.

I am a Family History consultant in Calgary. I had an experience years ago. I was in a FH centre in Utah. The assistant there asked me what country I was researching. I said Iceland and that is where I am from. Then she told me not to worry because all of it had been extracted. I said I did not think so. She replied that it was so. I just smiled and since then of course I have found hundreds more ordinances that need to be done. One just has to smile. We are there and need to ask questions sometimes in order to help patrons. I have found because of new. familysearch that there are many ordinances missing. Often we assume they have been done until we look them us.
Thanks for a great blog site.

I would be very interested to hear how to email the ordinances to members of my family. It seems to me it would be a better alternative than having the cards printed out and mailing them the cards.

This is a wonderful example of helping and serving the members. What a lovely gift to this member.

I am hoping they missed out the part of doing actual research to identify the names.
