Hi Jacob,
TreeDraw produces pdf files like Charting Companion. Most people have
a PDF reader.
This week I've come across a fast free PDF reader from
http://www.foxitsoftware.com/
I agree that TreeDraw has a learning curve - but so does Charting
Companion to get anything to fit nicely on a chart. I've sorted out
TreeDraw but don't use Charting Companion often enough to have worked
out a good way to juggle box sizes, font sizes and scaling. It does
make pretty small charts.

Marie,
I have used both Legacy Charting Companion II and Treedraw for the
express purpose of producing and sending via email to my relatives
descendancy charts. Although both produce charts which cannot
easily be printed for a large (over 2300 individuals) database
except on a plotter, I found that Treedraw is not as user-friendly
and some of my relatives would not appreciate having to download a
free reader to look at the Treedraw charts. Also LCC II made it
very easy to produce drop-down charts.
