Help with printing Pedigree from GR Tree

I would like to ask for information about a problem that I am experiencing, which I'm sure has arisen on here at some point and it is that when you look at the Pedigree for a particular relative it only shows up to a certain stage, then when you click on the green arrows it expands. Only problem is that I want to print off a sheet showing the whole of my pedigree, but it will only allow one set of extended relatives at a time, and not the whole pedigree. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is this just another 'problem' with the GR Tree!!! :-|

Unfortunately the print facility hasn't worked properly for months - GR themselves advise that you contact a commercial firm.

Many members have used http://www.genealogyprinters.com/ with great results.
Alternatively you could download a free Tree programme, or purchase one. Depending on the size of your tree, it may spread over several pages.

Have you thought of buying or downloading a chart you can fill in by hand? If you are trying to show both your mother and father's ancestors at the same time, an hourglass/bow tie chart might fit the bill

GR does provided some - link on the left of the page

There are lots of results on an internet search of 'family history charts' eg http://www.familytreetemplates.net/

Many thanks for that info. Have just taken a look at the suggested family tree templates website and I think this will be very helpful. :-D
