GEDCOM import & export

From first name to a family tree you can keep

Start with what you know, add relatives one branch at a time, and check the details before you print or share. RootsPrint keeps the work on your device and gives you standard files for moving it elsewhere.

  1. 01 · Build

    Begin with one person

    Add yourself or another known relative, then connect parents, partners, children, and siblings. Names are enough to begin; dates, places, notes, and photos can come later.

    Follow the beginner's guide
  2. 02 · Check

    Catch mistakes before they spread

    Use data checks to find impossible dates and relationship problems. Search, branch focus, and the relationship calculator help you inspect larger trees without losing your place.

  3. 03 · Protect

    Keep a backup you control

    Browser storage is private, but clearing site data can remove a tree. Export a JSON backup for RootsPrint and a GEDCOM file when you need to move genealogy data between applications.

    Print a chart that fits the family

    Pick a focused view - close family, ancestors, descendants, or your direct line - cap the generations, and export a PDF that fits its own paper size, a PNG to share, or a multi-page family Book.
