A lot depends on how many names you have in your tree.

Are you talking about 50, 100, 500, 1,000 or more than that?

There are only a few family tree programs available worldwide that will print a tree out with everybody in the file on it.

The free one (P.A.F.) on familysearch.org will not print out this type of tree.

That particular type of tree is called either an All in One or an Everyone Tree.

The ONLY programs that will print this type of tree easily are.

Genbox (my favourite)

Family Historian (very good as well)

Family Tree Maker all versions except 2008 (but the tree is usually not very well laid out)

Geno Pro (yukky looking tree but it does the job and it's free)

Family Historian and Genbox have a free trial full version that you can download and use for 30 days free of charge. Google for the respective websites.

They do a free one on family search, PAF, but don't know if you can do a full family chart.

Does anybody know of any FREE software that I can import by GEDCOM file to and print off a FULL family chart. I use Family Tree Maker 2008, but they have removed this facility from the software, apparently it is previous editions, but they will be bringing it back in 2009, yes I know, very helpful, not!

I would like to be able to print off all the details I have, so any advice is gratefully received,

Many thanks
