PRESS RELEASE

October 23, 1999

Wall Charts at Affordable Prices

Wholly Genes Software of Columbia, Maryland, is proud to announce the
launch of its custom wall chart printing service, Chartform Delivery, for
users of any Windows or Mac genealogy software.

In May, 1999, Wholly Genes released The Master Genealogist v4.0, which was
bundled with a powerful new charting utility, Visual Chartform, offering
click-and-drag customization of every chart element. With this popular new
utility, researchers found it easy to produce fabulous full-color wall
charts, including photos, to showcase their research - but they found that
commercial large-format printing services typically charge $10 per square
foot or more!

Upon popular request, Wholly Genes Software now offers Chartform Delivery,
a professional chart printing service at affordable prices. Prices range
from just $19.95 (up to 3'x3') to $69.95 (up to 3'x30'), or as little as
$.78 per square foot. (Charts with color backgrounds cost more). A typical
3'x10' chart which costs $300.00 or more at the local copy/printing store
is just $29.95 plus shipping from Chartform Delivery.

Users of Visual Chartform may submit a chart for printing in its native
(*.vch) format. Users of other software can use a downloadable driver to
submit their chart in Postscript format. Chartform Delivery prints in full
color on a professional-quality, large-format printer using only heavy-duty
coated paper for the highest quality output.

Sandy MacLean Clunies, CG, says that the wall charts from Chartform
Delivery were "the highlight of our Family Reunion. There was spirited
bidding when we auctioned them at the end of the event! The City Historian
was delighted with his personal charts and will place them in the [Lebanon,
NH] Historical Society for public viewing and preservation."

Hugh Goodman of Highland Village, Texas, says, "We stretched the 30 foot
horizontal chart out and watched all day as my cousins searched for their
respective families. We had no problem with updating family group sheets as
everyone wanted to be on next year's chart."

As a special bonus, when registered users of TMG v4.0 order their first
chart through Chartform Delivery, they will receive a second copy of the
same chart FREE.
