Free Download: RELATIVES 2.1

Relatives genealogical tree building software is intended for preparation and presentation of genealogic trees and storage of genealogic information in files.
The basic idea to which the author aspired in the Relatives program was to make the representation of a family tree evident, navigation on it convenient, and the process of its creation simple. While the program is suitable for use by amateurs and beginners in genealogy, it is a fully functional tool for professional genealogists.
The program completely supports the GEDCOM ver. 5.5 format that is de-facto the industry standard of storage of genealogic information.
The genealogic tree can be scaled for viewing at any range, from a view of the tree in its entirety to close details. When viewing a large section of the tree, the special Magnifier will allow you to see parts of the tree in 1:1 scale.
Using either a mouse or cursor keys, you can select and drag individual frames or groups of frames. The frames can then be aligned horizontally and vertically, evenly distributed, swapped, deleted, copied, cut and pasted. Double clicking on a frame shows the information window about the person.
Data can be stored in the software's proprietary format (*.rel), as well as exported to GEDCOM 5.5 (*.ged). without any loss of tree layout information. The program can also import data from GEDCOM 5.5 (*.ged) files.
Export is available to an HTML page or to a GIF image embedded in an HTML page making it possible to put your family trees on the Internet.
The tree can be printed out in any size and on a variety of printers, from wide-format plotters to consumer-level printers - squeeze up the whole tree into one Letter-sized page or spread it out over thousands of them.
The expanded support of so-called "user defined tags" is implemented in the Relatives software. You can create and edit your own tags in the special User tag Editor. User tags data is saved in the files and in GEDCOM files as well.
