To import a GEDCOM file, select “File” from the main menu bar then “Import from GEDCOM”:
A file selection dialog will then be shown to allow you to locate and find the GEDCOM (.ged) file on your computer. Select the file and then select “Open”.
The file should then be imported into Pedigree Forge.
After the import, the following dialog box will appear:
Selecting “Yes”, will open your system’s text file view and show any issues noted when importing the file— reviewing these will help to minimise any loss of fidelity in data. Select “No” to start using the program in Pedigree Forge.
Important: After the file has been imported, you will need to save it—use the usual Save or Save As files to select where you want to save the imported file.
