Family Tree in a Window (FamTreeW) allows you to enter information
about your family and relatives easily and quickly. You can specify names,
dates, relationships, a long biographical note--even include a scanned
portrait of the person in color or black and white (BMP format). 

Four types of reports can be produced: a full detail report (including
pictures) of all information and relationships for each person, a full tree
chart for any selected individual that graphically shows all direct ancestors
and descendants (including pictures), a life line chart for all people with
known birth dates and a mosaic report of all pictures.

FamTreeW also provides basic compatibility with GEDCOM-formatted data files
to allow sharing data with other genealogy programs.

NOTE: In this DEMO version, the ability to 'Save' or 'Save As' is NOT
activated. 

Note: Family Tree in a Window is designed to be used with 
Microsoft Windows (version 3.1).  

Note: the pictures in the included family1 sample family tree were 
scanned with a Mustek M-6000 CG hand scanner from available family 
photographs. The pictures were scanned at the scanner's maximum 
resolution and then Picture Publisher LE (which came with the scanner) 
was used to fine tune the pictures and electronically reduce them to a 
common size of 150 pixels tall before storing them as "bmp" picture files.

Note: the quality of reports produced by this program is VERY 
dependent on the resolution of the output device. Pictures shown in 
reports are recognizable, but noticably grainy, when printed on 300dpi 
laser or dot matrix printers. The same report printed on a 600dpi laser 
printer (such as a HP LaserJet IV) shows an amazing increase in the 
clarity of the pictures.
