Zovo Pedigree Charts

Description

From the marketplace listing

Turn the GEDCOM file from your genealogy program or website into a printable pedigree chart for family history research, a school project or a family reunion. Zovo Pedigree Charts reads a GEDCOM (.ged) export and draws one person with their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents: 4, 5 or 6 generations on one landscape page (Letter or A4). Each box shows the name, birth and death dates and places, and its Ahnentafel number (father = 2 x child, mother = 2 x child + 1). Unknown ancestors are dashed boxes you can fill in by hand, and a second page lists the ancestors in number order. You also get an Excel workbook with one row per person (names, dates, places, parents, spouse families), one row per family, the pedigree, and a Checks sheet. The checks list problems in the file: links to people or families that are missing, dates that cannot be real (31 FEB), people born after they died or older than 120, parents born after their children or younger than 12, and people recorded as their own ancestor. It reads GEDCOM 5.5.1 and 5.5 files (and most 7.0 files) in UTF-8, UTF-16, ANSEL or Windows-1252, including dates such as ABT 1850, BEF 1900, BET 1880 AND 1885 and double years like 1700/01. Name the person by name (add a birth year if two people share it) or by GEDCOM ID; if no one is named, the chart starts from the person with the most known ancestors. When a line goes further back than the chart, the result says which ancestor to start the next chart from. Good for family reunions, school projects, framing, and checking a tree before you share it. Limitations: reads GEDCOM files only (it does not research ancestors, connect to genealogy websites, or change your file); one chart holds up to 6 generations; Hebrew, French Republican and other non-Gregorian dates are shown but not checked; files up to 15 MB and 30,000 people.
