Title: Printing Ancestry Familt tree.
Post by: alice09 on Thursday 13 October 11 12:10 BST (UK)
Hi there. Does any one know how to print out the family tree from ancestry, I have tried but had to abandon as it didnt print in correct order. Think if I had continued it would have cost me a fortune in ink, paper and possibly a worn out printer.

How about a screen grab programme? (a snapshot of what you see). I've used Screengrabber to good effect for another purpose. Look up some reviews.
                          Good luck,

Hello Alice

I know of an online company that can print large family trees onto paper or canvas.  It's not that expensive, you just send them a PDF file and go from there.  I won't advertise it here save any rules on advertising companies.  Do mail me if you want their address.

Hello Alice

You can change files for free on this website, I think there are few around, I don't know what file you have at the moment, so hopefully it is one on the list.

If it is a ged com file it won't work.

I'll inbox you with the other details so you have to hand.
