Help with family trees.

I need to design a graphic family tree for the InCryptid books, since family is such a central (and unavoidable) concept. Does anybody have any recommendations for ways to do this, or want to help me by putting a tree together? I won't promise to be your best friend, but I will look endearing and mention you in the acknowledgments...

Do you want something that looks like this? If so I can either do it for you or show you how to do it. I use Personal Ancestral File (paf), but anything that can create a GEDCOM file will get you a result like the one I'm linking to.

That's actually slightly more complex than I need, scarily enough. I just need to be very clean, straightforward, and print-ready.

PAF has a number of different report formats. They all create MSWord files. I think there's one in there that's pretty much exactly what you're seeking. There's also the advantage that PAF is free.
