You can download your gedcom from GR and import it into Family Tree Maker 2006 or earlier versions (not FTM 2008) the 2006 version of the FTM program has a family tree book making feature where you can create and print a book, in the book you choose what reports, photos and trees are included in it.

TP has secure site with password protection
oddly enough when I tried printing my tree on GR it took 200 pages mostly blank of a complete strangers tree, which begs the question how secure are we ??

Thank you for that info but I really do not want to start transfering data. I am not sure if the site is safe etc. I have always had good response from GR and kept my membership in the hope of putting this info into book form, and as I am now at that point I am very disapointed.

It has long been the problem, nobody is satisfied with their printing from GR.

If you transfer a copy of your gedcom to a free tree site llike Tribalpages you will find their quality printouts and reports with a choice of pretty colours far superior.

When I first joint Genes Reunited at their launch I was able to print a predigree chart with my ancestors in their correct places. Am I just being an idiot as I do not seem to be able to do it now or any thing similar. Where an I going wrong please.
