I see the checkboxes to select the items to be included on the Legend printout.
Is there a way to include stitch TYPE? Such as, Half Stitch/Full Stitch, etc?

In general, the type of stitches (half/full/petite ...) use the same symbol. It is possible to duplicate colors in a pattern with 9 (not with 7) and define different symbols that could be used for that purpose. However, that would have to be explained in the instructions as the symbol key does not make a distinction. It assumes that each symbol is the only one for that symbol.

You can print the floss usage chart that does show symbols, colors, how many stitches and an estimate of how much materials would be used. It can also be exported to a .csv file for import into Excel or another spreadsheet product but the symbol is lost in those cases. The .csv file cannot handle multiple fonts in a single file.
