My tree is about the same size, and I gedcomed it to the Family Search program (free) and it prints out sections - the easiest thing is to start as far back as you can and print out clicking the Descendants tab. There are two forms, they call it them standard and wall chart - wall chart takes up rather more sheets of A4, but i have used both forms for giving to relatives.

Compared to some trees that I'm privileged to look at, mine isn't a massive tree (some 750 names)

I'd like to print out just one side of the family - or just some of the pages. I need these to show a relative who has no internet access.

All I get when trying to do this is the message

'No preview is available for large family trees, but you can still print by clicking the print selection button below. Please be aware that big trees may require a large number of sheets of A4 paper to print fully.'

Surely I don't need to print it all? And then throw away the 75% I don't need?

Anyone know if this simple request is possible?

Thanks
