As many of you noticed, we had some technical difficulties with AncestryPress on Saturday. Our talented engineers were able to fix the problems within a couple of hours, and the application has been working well ever since.

We’ll cover many more tips and tricks in the webinar on November 1. In the meantime, please continue to post your questions and ideas.

In an effort to increase communication between the Family Tree Maker team and our customers, we are excited to announce an upcoming webinar!

As part of our efforts to improve Family Tree Maker, we’re conducting a survey for beginner, intermediate and advanced users.

Today we are excited to announce the official launch of AncestryPressTM, our new self-publishing application. AncestryPress lets you create professionally printed, custom family history books for yourself or that can serve as gifts for other family members.

The response from the community in the Family Tree Maker blog has been significant. I thank you for the insight and comments that have been left so far. They are very helpful.

I’m happy to report that we have some very talented designers working on creating additional templates on a variety of themes.

Welcome to the new AncestryPress! Many thanks to those of you who tried out the book building tool during the beta phase. The feedback you’ve provided over the past six months has helped us develop an application that is both robust and easy to use.
