When listing Descendents, I have a 6 page printout with only the right hand pages containing data. Also, many charts seem to print out as wall charts. What can I do to compress some of this information. I have tried moving data boxes around, but that can be pretty difficult to keep family lines connected properly.

I am thinking about reunion 9, but if this is the only way charts print out whats the use?

To change the "orientation," simply choose Tree -> Orientation and select a different chart orientation from the "Orientation" pop-up menu. (Incidentally, when wanting to reduce the size of a chart, the Waterfall orientation normally is the one to select. However, the best one for you will depend on the structure of your family.)

Additional information about changing the orientation of charts and other ways to reduce the size of charts can be found in your manual by searching for "orientation" and "reduce chart," respectively.

I hope you find this information helpful:-)
