Hello, I am doing my family tree and I come across the problem that since we are quite a few, if the tree is displayed horizontally (it's the default setting), it is way too wide to make it easy to read and understand.

Is there any way to display it vertically so it is more schematic?

Thanks in advance

That's not a current feature of Family Echo. When I want to print my family tree out differently, I export my tree as a GEDCOM file (all geneology software can read GEDCOM files), and import it into a program that prints the way I'm after. Family Tree Maker is the program that most often does what I'm after. There are also online services that will format your family tree any way you'd like and print it out for you.

Note: Photos are not exported with your GEDCOM file.
