Printing & Saving as PDF
Every way to get your genogram onto paper or into a PDF file.
There are three ways to turn your genogram into a document. Which one you use depends on what you need — and Print is free on every plan.
Print (free, all plans)
- Open the menu (three lines, top left of the editor)
- Choose Print... — or just press Cmd+P (Mac) / Ctrl+P (Windows)
- A tidy print view opens with layout options
Tip: Print is also the free way to make a PDF. In your browser's print dialog, change the destination/printer to "Save as PDF" — this works on every plan and is perfect for emailing your genogram or submitting an assignment.
Export as PDF (Pro)
The menu's Export as PDF option generates a dedicated PDF file with export options like an integrated key, hidden branding, and anonymized names. It's part of the Pro plan, along with GEDCOM export and save-to-computer.
Export as an image (free)
- Menu → Export image...
- PNG at standard resolution is free; High Res (6x print quality) and SVG (vector) are Pro options
Useful toggles in the export dialog: hide grid dots, hide generation lines, hide family group circles, and Integrated Key, which adds the symbol key onto the exported image so it explains itself.
Emailing your genogram
Export a PNG (or print-to-PDF as above), then attach the downloaded file to your email like any other document. You can also use Share to publish a view-only link instead of attaching a file.
