How to convert GEDCOM files produced by Family Tree Maker to PDF?

Question

Is there a program that will allow me to convert Gedcom files to jpeg or pdf? Using a family history program (Family Tree Maker version 9) I have produced the Gedcom file but can't find a way to manipulate it for printing.

Solution

A GEDCOM file should be plain text, so you could open it in any text editor. If you are just looking to print it, that should be sufficient because you could edit it in Notepad, Word or any other text editor and then print from there. If you still need it in PDF format, open it in something like Microsoft Word 2007/2010 and save it as a PDF from there. Or find and download one of the myriad of free PDF printers out there and just print to the PDF writer from your favorite text editor.

Doesn't that app allow you to print directly? If so, simply install a "PDF printer" such as Bullzip, then print to PDF.
