If you would like your chart printed you will need to export it as a GEDCOM file and send that to us. You need then to follow the instructions for GEDCOM, GEDCOM is an acronym for GEnealogical Data COMmunication, is a specification for exchanging genealogical data between different genealogical systems. It was developed by The Church of the Later Day Saints as an aid in their extensive genealogical research. A GEDCOM file is plain text containing records for each individual in the family tree, and data linking these records together. Most (if not all) genealogy software supports importing from and/or exporting to GEDCOM format. You will normally find the import/export facility under the file menu in most programmes. It is a data transfer not a picture transfer format Exporting
GEDCOMs It is
possible to export a copy of your Genes Reunited tree as a GEDCOM file. You can
do this by clicking on the Family Tree button at the top of your homepage, then
selecting GEDCOMs from the drop-down menu. Select 'export GEDCOM' from the green
box to the left of the page. You can then click on 'export GEDCOM' and a copy of
your tree will be emailed to you within a few minutes. The file is sent as an
attachment from the email address noreply@genesreunited.com. Please make sure
that your email provider allows attachments and will allow emails from the above
address. Even
if you do not currently have a software package you can still export your file.
However, in order to view it you will need the software to view it. There are
various packages available to buy on the market. (see
Help/Links above) There are also internet sites where you can download
packages for free. Once you
have exported your file you can save it to a CD/DVD or a USB Memory stick. To save it
externally you must first save it on your PC. You can then copy the file to your
CD/DVD or memory stick. It will be saved as a GEDCOM.

that file either on a disk , memory stick or as an e.mail attachment
