Family Tree Printing From A GEDCOM File

If your genealogy software program doesn't allow you to design the type of chart that you'd like printed, we can use your GEDCOM file as source material and do the chart design for you. Although only a handful genealogy software programs allow you to design your own charts for printing, virtually all genealogy software programs will allow you export your data as a GEDCOM file.

Your first choice should always be to purchase a genealogy program such as Family Tree Maker and do the design work yourself.  You can easily import your existing GEDCOM file into Family Tree Maker and be ready to do your own design work in a matter of minutes.  Family Tree Maker is relatively inexpensive, and sells for about $30 online.  If for some reason you don't want to do this, we can do it for you.

If you need assistance in designing your genealogy chart, simply send or e-mail us your GEDCOM file.  After we import your GEDCOM file into Family Tree Maker and design your chart, we will send you a preview of what your chart will look like for you to proof prior to printing.  The preview will be an Adobe Acrobat PDF file which we will send you as an e-mail attachment.  The Adobe Acrobat reader software is free if you don't already have it.  After you proof the PDF file and give us your OK, we will then proceed with printing your family tree chart.

Our charges for importing an existing GEDCOM file, doing the design work, and providing you with a preview in PDF format is only $25. If additional work or corrections to your data is required, additional charges will apply.  Our normal family tree printing charges will be in addition to this design fee.  If your chart is already designed and print-ready, this design fee does not apply.
