Is it possible to print tree from Genes site? Have pressed print button but It's printing in tiny illegible print. How do I do this please?

Are you trying to print your whole tree on one page

As you can alter the size by right clicking on the little microscope at the bottom right hand side of your screen

Researching:
Stockton-on-tees North Yorkshire Durham & North East

Yes, was trying to print the whole tree on one page as couldn't figure out how to do otherwise. Will give it a go! Once again, thanks for taking the time to reply.

157 will probably not fit onto 1 page.

The most likely outcome is about 10 pages if you can get the print size right.

There will be blank pages to make the tree printout an equal size.

Then you have to go into Blue Peter mode and stick it all together.

Good luck!!!!!

Thanks PigletsPal but not sure how to increase print size-advice on how to do this would be appreciated. After that, Blue Peter mode would be a doddle. Am a dab hand with sticky back, it's computers that give me difficulties!

Hi Lynn,

If you go to "Full Tree" from the title bar when you are into your own tree a diagram will come up on the left hand side (it will say PRINT at the bottom). Moving the cursor up or down on this scale will make the print bigger or smaller Find the size that suits you and then print off the pages you want. Hope this helps.

Helen.
