Quick instruction how You can enable automatic output to enable PDF on Microsoft Windows as by default these reports on only output to the LaTeX(".tex" extension) file type which are not suitable for viewing. For our Microsoft WindowsTeX/LaTeX environment you will use [https://miktex.org/ MiKTeX] we only need to download the basic installer from:* https://miktex.org/download/ Start the MiKTeX installer and during install:* select {{man label|[ ]Install MiKTeX only for me(YOURUSERNAME)}} * and change {{man label|Install missing packages on-the-fly}} to ''Yes''after successful installation of MiKTeX do the following once only:

Install it and run, create one of several type of reports Start the [https://www.howtogeek.com/235101/10-ways-to-open-the-command-prompt-in {{man menu|Reports->Trees}} menuwindows-10/ Microsoft Windows command console prompt] (cmd.exe) and type:

You can output PDF("If that works then you are ready to have MiKTex install the additional missing packages, start Gramps and create a one of the {{man menu|Reports > Trees > [Xxxxx] Tree...pdf" extension) }} reports and for the LaTeX(".tex" extension) type files for . Now in the reportsMicrosoft Windows command console prompt (cmd.exe) type:

As our Microsoft Windows TeX<code>lualatex FILENAME</LaTeX environment you will use MiKTeX(from https://miktex.org/ ) The MiKTeX program environment is pretty large so we download the basic installation (190MB in size) from https://miktex.org/download/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/setup/basic-miktex-2.9.6520-x64.execode>

Start where FILENAME is full pathname of <code>.tex</code> file you previously create in Gramps. The MiKTeX package manager will then automatically download the MiKTeX installer and during install select "install for me only" and "Install missing packages on-. When all is finished pdf file will be created in directory in which you start this command, along with two other files of the-fly"same name but with different extensions (*.log) and (*.aux) which you can ignore.

After successful installation of MiKTeX If everything goes well you will now have an additional {{man label|Output format:}} option in Gramps to output the reports to the PDF(it can take some time".pdf" extension) start format and the Windows command console builtin LaTex(cmd*.exetex) and type: lualatex FILENAMEformat.

where FILENAME The last optional step is full pathname of .tex file you previously create in Gramps. MiKTeX package manager will automatically download missing packages. When all is finished pdf file will be created in directory in which you start this command. I recommend then that you run "MiKTeX Settings" from the Windows StartMenu run the {{man label|MiKTeX Console}} and in {{man label|Settings}} change "{{man label|[ ]Always install missing packages on-the-fly" }} settings to "No" {{man label|[ ]Ask me}}(recommended) or "Always ask"{{man label|[ ]Never install missing packages on-the-fly}}.

If everything goes well you will now have option in Gramps {{man tip|PDF's created automatically with lualatex|are output to create such reports in both latex and pdf the PDF Version 1.5 (Acrobat 6.0)format.which has a maximum PDF page size of 200" x 200" inches (508cm x 508cm) so choose your custom paper sizes accordingly or Gramps will show the {{man label|[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Error_and_Warning_Reference#Report_could_not_be_created|Report could not be created]]}} dialog}}

The naming (“tree”) derives from historical family diagrams. However, even the smallest family entity consisting of two parents and several children is hardly a ‘mathematical’ tree — it is a more general graph. The package provides a set of tools to typeset genealogical trees (i.e., to typeset a set of special graphs for the description of family-like structures). The package uses an autolayout algorithm which can be customized, e.g., to prioritize certain paths.* Questions tagged [https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/genealogytree genealogytree] on tex.stackexchange.com '''Discussions on Gramps community support forum (Discourse)'''* [https://gramps.discourse.group/t/recurring-people-not-visible-on-exported-descendant-graph/4328/5 rendering of cousins marrying] and [[Addon:Family_Tree|Family Tree]] addon report as an alternative.
