Such charts can easily be done... as long as users will settle for a minimum of information (first name, surname, year of birth, year of death) and forego all the other stuff (full name, places of birth and death, date and place of marriages, pictures, memos, sources, end notes, etc.). There is only so much info that can be put on a given area of paper and still be readable.

Sadly legacy Charting is not designed to print Charts on standard printers. Like all of the others they have concentrated their efforts on reinventing the wheel pioneered by FTM, TMG and Roots Magic. I am sure that the chart would look great if printed on a 36" wide format color printer. Don't get me wrong I have used Legacy for a number of years even though I have access to the other big three programs. It is by far the best Genealogy program for more reasons than I would care to go into. The lack of native charting has been its big weakness. I just wish that they would/could design a portion that was centered on producing charts that could be printed on regular printers (8.5x11,8.5x14, or even 11x17)and inserted into reports, books etc. This would truly be unique and fill an obvious void in the market. Sorry, rant over. GCO ____________________________________________________________________________________ You rock.
