How do I print my family tree from Family Search?

DianaHawks

Hi m.mapper

Printing is available from any of the Tree Views. Click on any View (Fan Chart, Landscape, Portrait or Descendancy.) To the right of the screen, there is an Options button. Clicking there will provide the Print.

However, there are better options for printing than those offered by FamilySearch. If you scroll to the footer in FamilySearch, you will find a link to the Solutions Gallery. There you will find options under Charts, that provide you with many different printing options.

Here is the link: https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/list?category=charts

Hope this provides you with what you need

FYI

Further to what has already been proffered ...

As it is, "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', is not; and, never was, even 'Designed' with, proper/significant "Printing" capabilities, which are very limited.

"Printing" is limited to the printing of:

▬ a "Family Group Sheet" for an individual/person; and,

▬ a x4 Generation, "Pedigree" Chart for an individual/person.

That is basically it.

We CANNOT neither, "Print"; and/or, "Download", our "Ancestral" Lines, directly from "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch".

But ...

That Said ...

Do not disappear ...

As, has already been proffered, there is an alternative ...

The best option for such in your "Ancestral" lines in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', is to use one of the "Third Party" Applications [ being of either, the "Family Tree Management" programmes; or, Charting (Printing) programmes ] that is "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

The "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' can be found in the "Solutions Gallery" of 'FamilySearch'.

Here is a direct link to the "Solutions Gallery" of 'FamilySearch':

https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/

And, here is the direct link to the "Family Tree Management" programmes, themselves:

And, here is the direct link to the "Charting (Printing)" programmes, themselves:

https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/list?category=charts

"Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' include, BOTH, 'On-Line' "Websites" (eg. "Ancestry_com"; or "MyHeritage_com"; or, the like); and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes ("Ancestral Quest"; or, the like).

Some of the "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' have, BOTH, a Basic FREE version; and/or, a Premium PIAD (ie. "Subscription") version, the latter just having more 'Bells and Whistles'. The Basic FREE version is sufficient for most, the average, User/Patron. Whereas, the Premium PAID (ie. "Subscription") version is the choice of most experienced and 'power' Users/Patrons.

You can use ONE or MORE than one, of the the "Third Party" Applications, the choice is yours.

Most of the "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' that are "Family Tree Management programmes, have INTERFACES that work/connect (directly) with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' that can, "Download"; and, "Upload" (ie. "Transfer) between the "Third Party" Application and "Family Tree".

I know that this might not help; but, I hope that this gives you some perspective; and, another avenue to explore.
