Has anyone any idea of the cost of having a tree printed professionally, as the task seems very daunting to me . It would need to include siblings and children, .

also grateful for all the above info.

Another option which I have not seen mentioned recently for printing parts of a GR tree, is to highlight an individual on the full tree, then click on 'Ancestors' or 'Descendants'. Either of these will show the direct line leading to or from the selected individual, but will not include siblings or children . You can then print off a copy of this shortened tree by the same method you would use for a full tree.
This often gives enough information for others who are not really interested in genealogy, but curious about immediate family. This will also not cost you any more than you are already paying for GR (if anything)

I run a family tree programme on my computer (FTM 2010) which enables me to print off family trees to suit my (and relatives) needs.

Hi

Could anyone please point me in the right direction of some software or a way of printing off my family tree. A couple of relatives are wanting copies of what i've found but it doesn't print well in genesreunited.

I'm using a mac so anything that's compatible with that would be great

Thanks
Carly
