Jacob,
My husband and I made very large wall charts using Treedraw, for 4,000
people. Yes it took some work, as Cathy says there is a learning curve
when first starting to use Treedraw. I was fortunate that my husband's
office was able to print the large charts, having said that at the time
on this list many people said it was easy to have them printed up at
commercial printers. I tried Charting Companion and found it clumsy
(this was about 3 years ago, it may have changed by now) so use Treedraw
exclusivly. The largest wall chart was 11 feet by 3 feet. I am now
doing 81'2 x 11 sheets for a book. Lots of work yes, but worth it. By
using the drop down chart I can follow through the tree easily.

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.
