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. Foxy Original Message Follows For a Family Reunion's it's great to be able to print an All-In-One Chart which contains a

I have kept my Generations precisely for the Charting. No one has come close to the ease of use of this program. I just wish it was a part of Legacy. It isn't, which is a shame. Roger From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Chart printing

For a Family Reunion's it's great to be able to print an All-In-One Chart which contains a subset of your complete database. First create a gedcom which is a subset of your database. (This is the hardest part, selecting the right multiple ancestors, and selecting them and their

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. My file is

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

Bill: 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 and what would you do with it if you had it? Most people will
