Family Historian User Group

Hi.
Sorry to be a heretic but I don't find the way FH prints diagrams on multiple pages to be very convenient. Its fine if you intend to stick the A4 together for wallpaper but not if you want to keep them as separate pages, because its impossible to prevent all of the page boundaries from splitting up some families.

What I have in mind is the ability AUTOMATICALLY to have each family group fitted on to 1 page of A4, for each family group in the tree, but without splitting the family across multiple pages, and with optional additional symbolic 'Connectors' to show which page(s) depict the preceding and following generations.

Sure , you can achieve something similar by selecting and printing off each family in turn, but it would be a lot easier to be able to run them all off with one command.

If there is a GEDCOM utility that can do this, please let me know.

Best regards

The idea sounds fine in principle but how can you control the size of a family group - where does it start? Where does it end.

You could end up with a situation where the family group is printed on one page but ends up so small that you cannot read it!

I presume this request is simlar to the book printing of trees in FTW.

If so it is covered by the Book Printing Wish list item
