How do I export a GEDCOM?

You export your data for exchange. If you want to pass them on to other genealogists who don’t have Heredis to read them, or if they use an older version of Heredis, or if you want to keep a version that can be used by other software, use the GEDCOM format. This is a text-based file format, containing only text and no media. See the article What is a GEDCOM? for more details.

Important : if you make limitations on persons (marked, confidential…) and the root person (in the case of an export of the whole file) or the central character (in the case of an export of a branch) is affected by these limitations, then your GEDCOM file will be empty! You can’t create a file without having a referent person at the base of your file.

To export an entire file, consult the article: Export a complete file in GEDCOM format

To export a part or a branch of a file, consult the article: Export a branch in GEDCOM format
