How Do I Import Pedigrees Manually (PDF or Paper Pedigree)
So you have a pedigree you want to import into Everbreed? Great! First, note that if this pedigree comes from Evans software in an htm file, or if it's from another Everbreed user (either printed, PDF, or as an Everbreed link), you can import it automatically.
