Printing

17 Nov 2006 by Dan Lawyer

Many of our users have commented about the ability to print from the pedigree viewer. The viewer does have a basic print capability that prints what you see on the screen on an 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of paper. Depending on your needs this basic printout may be sufficient. Several users however, have asked how they might print their whole pedigree in a format that they could read and use.

We don’t intend to start playing with large format printing through our tool. There are however several commercial providers that offer large format printing of family trees. For example, GenerationMaps.com offers a great service for printing out your pedigree in a large format. If you’re looking for a way to print out your whole tree in a usable way, you might give GenerationMaps.com a try. Check them out at www.generationmaps.com.
