Take your tree out of Family Echo
Family Echo keeps your tree online. Download it with the Download button in its toolbar as a GEDCOM file and drop it here for charts of the whole tree, a book, or a copy that stays on your computer.

The steps
Open your tree on Family Echo and press Download in the toolbar, then choose the GEDCOM format. The file is saved to your downloads folder.
Why bother
A file on your own computer is a backup that does not depend on a website. Here the whole tree can be printed as one chart — ancestors, descendants, a fan, an hourglass or all relatives with aunts, uncles and cousins — at any paper size, or across A4 sheets to glue together, and written up as a family history book.
Questions
- Can I go back to Family Echo after changing it here?
- Family Echo can import GEDCOM: save the tree here as GEDCOM 5.5.1 and use its import option.
