John,
I downloaded pdf pro, and created a custom page of 11 x 300, and named it
banner, but it did not create the file when I sent it to print. Or rather,
it did create it, but it took my 300 inch chart, inexplicably printed it to
5 pages, 4 of which were blank, and one a fragment of the chart.
Janis,
pdfFactory Pro defaults to letter paper size unless you change the
defaults (in Printers, right-click pdfFactory Pro and select preferences).
You can select the banner size when you print by clicking Print, then
selecting pdfFactory Pro as the printer, then clicking Properties. On the
I just looked at my Adobe Standard 8 help file, and it says that the maximum
*.pdf is 15,000,000 inches. Adobe 8 also allows you to specify the amount of
overlap for multiple page documents (like our charts), and will mark the
pages so you can easily line up the pages. I haven't tried this, as
Generations had it, Reunion has it.
I haven't seen FTM, a couple of others have it, but it is clunky and
difficult to customise.
It is the chart I use the most.

No it cannot be done using Legacy. FTM has an AllInOne chart which
produces the pdf file you are requesting.

Hi Bill,
Like Chap I can't imagine printing a chart with all individuals in
the one chart. Even a chart with just the descendants of one set of
great grandparents is totally impractical - and produced
automatically by programs is a ribbon about 30 cm wide but 15 metres long.

As well as an everyone chart, a chart with all blood relatives would be
good. Rather than only showing the descendants, it can show different lines
that are beyond value at family reunions. Fortunately I have access to a
colour roll printer at work.
In Generations I printed one out for a

I don't think most people would ever want to print a chart with everyone in
their database.. I for one have over 30,000 people in my database and a
chart for everyone would probably be a block long - how do you print that
