Download the files you want to print to a memory stick.

Pop down to your local library, someone will show you how to transfer to a computer and print.

Most libraries have these facilities. There may be a small fee, 10p or so.

Assuming you mean to print on paper, then that is like asking how to cook a rice pudding without rice.

Some family tree programs like Family Tree Maker will create what is known as a PDF fle. A PDF reader like Acrobat will allow you to view your tree on a screen and even scroll it around. A PDF file can also be printed provided you have a printer but without a printer, ending up with a sheet of paper with details in your hand would be very difficult.

There is a member on this site that will professionally print a tree for you.

Hello,
I wonder if someone could explain to me how to print off my tree when I don't have a printer.
I am sure I saw a thread for this recently but can't find it.

Thank you
jean


please can you explain in VERY simple terms as I am a complete novice when it comes to computers.
