FTM 2010 has the ability to create a book in this manner.

It allows you to create a professional looking book to share with others, made from charts reports and documents. The Book is saved in PDF format, which means that others will be able to view and print the book on their personal computers.

I know it probably won't be the best looking but many have suggested on here to use wallpaper (lining paper or the reverse side). This seems a good idea and one I will try when I get more time. Useful especially when linking several families together.

If you go to www.genealogyprinters.com and after entering the site click on "Blank Charts" on the left hand side of the screen under "Categories". There are 20 different charts to chose from.
