Creating Family Tree

Is anyone using the FamilySearch tree?

I switched over to this but having a difficult time trying to get just 5 generations on one page. Anyone have any idea how to do this?

Are you talking about FamilySearch software from LDS? If so, and you're on the Pedigree page it only takes five generations...you have to click on the arrow at the right of the name to see the rest of your ancestors.

Yes, that's the one I'm using, Anne! I only have 5 generations on it but I can't seem to print it all out on the same page - it is taking 4 pages to print it out. How do I format it to get it all to print on the same page?
Any ideas?

Hi Cattie,

If you’re on the Pedigree page go up to the top and click on the “printer” icon, a box will come up for Reports and Charts and will probably be on the Pedigree tab. Try the following:

Type of Chart…click single page
Chart Options...Generations per page…type in 5
Chart # of first chart….type in 1
Chart Numbering…click “Sequential”
Start Person is same as 1 (that’s you)……. on Chart …type 1
Index Options…click “no index”
Other Options….click as you desire

This will give you all five generations on one page. Hope this helps.
