    NOV Diagram can export family tree diagrams to the the popular Genealogical Data Communication (GEDCOM) format. Unlike the GEDCOM import, loading of the family tree shape library is not required for the GEDCOM export.

     Exporting GEDCOM Files and Streams

    After the family tree shapes library is loaded, GEDCOM files can be imported. The following code example shows how to save GEDCOM data to file and stream from a drawing view:

    Exporting GEDCOM data to file
    Copy Code 
    drawingView.SaveToLocalFile(@"D:\Documents\MyFamilyTree.ged");
    Exporting GEDCOM data to stream
    Copy Code 
    drawingView.SaveToStream(stream, NDrawingFormat.Gedcom);
