I have been using TreeDraw V2.02 for many years now but have thought of up-grading to the latest V3.
Being able to turn the family trees into PDF files is exactly what I would like to do.
However, I have many very large family trees that I have produced over the years and the trial version of TreeDraw V3 won't import or open any of them.
I get the error messages - "Could not open a V2.02 chart file" follwed by "Could not open file" when I try. Also, there's no reason given as to why it can't open them so I don't know what to do. Version 2 picks them up perfectly.
There's no indication, on the Spansoft website, that the full registered version will open or import them nor is there any mention anywhere of any conversion software being available (as there was from V1 to V2).
Can you help me, please as I would like to up-grade so I can put my trees, finally, on the web! What's the problem and how do I overcome it?
Thanks in advance,
John

We have investigated this problem and found that TreeDraw is correctly declining to open a V2 chart file when the program has not been registered.
The problem you had was that when you received the message "Could not open a V2.02 chart file", you should have clicked on the "More info" button to get an explanation of the error.

Just found this thread because we've been on holiday.Johnco wrote:It's a pity that I couldn't have tried just one conversion of a TDR to a PDF file. I have some very big drawings and it would have been nice to have seen them converted.
If it's any help, John, I've created several large charts for customers which I've converted to PDF. All have been fine.
