Focus Page Ancesstors - How to Print

Post by LindafromMurton » 18 Aug 2011 16:24

I am sorry if this is explained elsewhere but I am going around in circles.

Can anyone please explain how to print and/or save the digram you see when in the Focus Page you click on Ancestors. Its brilliant to see but I would love to save it to a PDF file and print what I see on the screen.

I use V4

Your help would be very much appreciated.

I'm not aware of any facility in FH for this.  I would use a screen grabber such as FastStone Capture to save an area of the screen as a JPG image file.

Don't forget you can get pretty well the same layout from the the ancestor diagram with a custom text scheme and a left right veiw

... and one of the Standard Diagrams (on the View menu) is Pedigree Chart - 5 Gens.

Many thanks for your responses. There is so much to learn about this program.

I have managed to print out (on four pages) the diagram I was looking for.

Kind regards - Linda
