The system makes it easy for me to share a story about an ancestor using e-mail, Pinterest, Facebook, etc. But I'd like to quickly print the story to paper and share with my kids around a campfire some details about that ancestor's life.

    Cary Holmquist said: Thanks, Jessie Hearle for pointing out the link to the help article that explains how so many of us have “worked around” the lack of a Print button for Stories. However, it seems that some of us would like a more direct method for printing Stories, a method that is available on other features of FamilySearch. It seems intuitive that if we can upload Stories easily that we should be able to just as easily “download them into a Print function without all the extra steps which involve other applications on our devices.... It would seem that installing such a function to Stories is a low priority (if on a list at all), or perhaps Stories is much more complicated than it appears to users and so fraught with too many issues that it is easier/better to low-list it in favor of the work-arounds.... Some transparent communication might help solve the frustration level of interested users.....

    Not sure if the screen print I took will display here. The Copy & Paste outcome is not as pretty. I am inclined not to add the stories to FamilySearch if I have to create them twice.
