Hi List,
I have researched my family as far back as I can go. To the middle 1500s. Now I would like to get a really fancy family tree sheet to record what I have and frame it. Can anyone tell me where you can get a nice and fancy family tree sheet?

Joe Makowiec...
That's kind of a broad question. It depends on a number of factors,
like do you want to generate the tree from your software? Do you want
an ancestor tree? Descendant tree? Descendants of one person/couple?
Ancestors of you? Your children? Cousins? Collateral lines? Do you
want it hand-lettered? Do you want it wall-sized? A4?

Whollygenes, the company which makes The Master Genealogist, offers
Chartform Delivery:

Given input in one of several formats, they will print a chart for you
up to 3 feet x 30 feet (roughly 1m x 10m) for US$70; smaller charts go
down to US$20.

Many printing companies will have large-format printers available;
check your local business directory. They should be able to tell you
how to set your computer up to send them a print job.


Charani...
Try one of these firms:

The first named I can recommend. They give an excellent and prompt
service. (Disclaimer: no connections with company, just a very
satisfied customer)

I'm just starting out on my research, and currently using PAF,
but find the printing options frustrating. I would like to be
able to see the full extent of the data, not just direct
ancestors or descendants, and tile print it for reference.

The tree on Genes Reunited tries to do this, but the formatting
it not very good.

Has anybody got any suggestions?

soc.genealogy.computing might be a better place to ask.

Have you bought the addon PAF Companion from the LDS in Birmingham.
Costs about =A36.50 and adds a lot of printing options to the basic PAF=20
package.
Good luck with your search.

PS - see you at a ceilidh somewhere
