Goal

2006: Genealogica Grafica will be recognized as the norm for the publication of graphical genealogical data on the internet.
2010: in the meantime, the program is known as well for its unprecedented ability to signal inconsistencies in links and dates of a gedcom.

Introduction

Genealogica Grafica is the successor of KStableau. The program offers broad charting capabilities, such as:
  • ancestor chart (pedigree) plus outline
  • descendants chart plus outline
  • ancestor tree
  • descendant tree
  • timeline descendants chart
  • inbreeding charts
  • relationship charts
  • circle diagrams
  • geographic map of birthplaces
In addition, you can rely on:

  • capabilities for personalized report phrasing
  • superior Gedcom consistency checks
  • editing of tableau layout
  • high-quality prints
  • automatic detection of new versions
  • UI and output in English, French, German, Dutch, Swedish or Norwegian

The program is free.
