Turn a GEDCOM file into a printable PDF: a classic pedigree chart, a numbered descendant list, or a family book with an entry for every person. Free, no watermarks beyond a small credit line, and nothing is uploaded.
Exports from Ancestry, MyHeritage, FamilySearch, Gramps, and Family Tree Maker all work — including older ANSEL-encoded files.
Nothing is uploaded. Your file is read and converted entirely in your browser; it never leaves your device.
The pedigree chart is the format genealogists reach for first: the starting person on the left, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents fanning right across one landscape page — up to five generations. The descendant list runs the other way, numbering every descendant in d'Aboville style (1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.2.1…) with births, deaths, and marriages. The family book is the hand-to-relatives option: a title page, then every person in the file grouped by surname with their vitals, spouses, children, and notes.
Searches for “gedcom printing software” usually end at decades-old Windows downloads. You don't need one: this page builds the PDF with JavaScript in your browser, so it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, tablets — anywhere. Pick A4 or US Letter, download, print.
For the chart and the list you choose who to start from; the search box covers everyone in the file. A good default is picked automatically, but charts are most satisfying rooted at yourself (pedigree) or at the earliest ancestor you've confirmed (descendants). To explore the tree first, open the file in the interactive viewer — the last file you open there is offered here with one click.
The PDFs use the standard Helvetica fonts, which cover Western-European characters (å, ä, ö, é, ü, ø and friends). Characters outside that range are reduced to their base letter so generation never fails mid-file.
