Thanks Inky1 - that sounds good. I still haven't had time to concentrate on it yet, but at least I've got two lots of ideas now. Thanks again.

If Andysmum's suggestion does not work, you will likely have difficulty finding an outside company that can produce what you are looking for.

My reason for that statement:-
The company would likely print from a .ged file. But as these are purely data files any photos would not attach.

However, perhaps a company could produce a tree that has sufficient spacing between the names/generations that you could subsequently attach copies of photos to it?

Could try/contact www.genealogyprinters.com

We can print:
An All-in-One full family tree
Every person on your tree
A single person ancestor tree
A Descendant Tree, back through all ancestry
A range of family tree prints containing just the people you want.
A wide range of Blank Family Tree wall charts
You can choose:
Font type and colour
Different background colours
Different background Wallpapers
Coat of Arms
Photographs
The information contained in the boxes

EDIT
(You couldn't make this up.......)
ENTER that site.
Click Printed Family Trees
Click Custom Made Charts
And there is a 23 person tree c/w photos.........

Thanks Andysmum, I'll have a go tomorrow and see if I can do it.

I have FTM 2005 and it won't do what you want to do, but your more recent version might.

If you go into FTM and click on Help, it will explain what you can and can't do.

Good luck. :-)

Update to above post. I've just counted the names I want in the tree, and there are 23 names I want included, so its just a small tree.

My Mam has dementia and is having trouble remembering the names of some of the family now.
I am hoping to print out a family tree for her, that includes a photo of each family member with their names on. I don't want the date of birth on etc.

I have family tree maker 2011, but I can't work out how to print it out with the photo too. Am I able to do it with FTM, or would it be better asking for an online firm to help me?
