PDF documents in their simplest form are just images of documents that may be read by a universal reader such as Adobe Reader. If you click on one of the links below where we tell you how to create a PDF you may notice that our instruction sheets are sent to your browser in the PDF format.

Converting a family tree diagram into a PDF document is relatively straight forward and it enables you to give us a file that will look just the same when it is printed as it does on your screen. The only limitation for a PDF document is its length cannot exceed 3.5 metres (about 12 feet).

Guidance on chart sizes

If you already have your file designed then you may upload it now and we will send you an email suggesting what size of paper would be best and we will direct you to the correct product to order on our website. If you have already determined the dimensions of your PDF document then you are welcome to just go ahead and place your order. We should be able to despatch your order to you the within one working day of receiving your PDF.
