I am again translating what I thing is being asked. My reccomendation is to go to Reports icon in the task bar. Choosing "Pedigree Chart" brings you to the 'monster'. Notice in the middle of the screen, a field named Generations. by playing 'Devil's Advocate", I scrolled up to 329 generations,and stopped. If you put ALL it will go to 999 generations. I would reccomend choosing one page (your choice 4-5-6), and review, then use then up arrow to add a page to the preview. I choose 5, then using 9, 13, 17, 21, then 25 gives 79 pages. When I used ALL it took about 2 minutes to created 522 pages, but this is tied to how fast my laptop is, and how big my hard drive is. The bottom line is, utilize preview to help decide how much paper you have, then print what you can. I noticed that pages 523-560 are an index. Printing the equivalent pages for your stuff will show how big this task is, without actually printing more than a ream of pages. Let it run to finish. Rich in LA CA
