With PA you can use decorative edges and corners in your pedigrees in two different ways:

 Around the edge of the printed page - as in the example shown here.
 and/or, individually around each box within a pedigree.

PA is supplied with a range of standard styles, including various sample graphics and motifs. All the graphics for the samples you see on this web site are included with the program. You can - of course - use your own graphics too. Here are some sample corner styles included with the product:

When you set up a border in PA, you can individually control each corner and side of the area being framed - be it the whole page or a box within the page.

For the edges you can choose between various line styles or you might used a tiled graphic - e.g. to have paw prints running round all edges. Corner graphics can also be used for that extra panache. Use of classic decorative borders with pedigree certificates gives a very professional result. PA is supplied with a range of pedigree layouts called 'Copperplate' that include decorative borders in conjunction with calligraphic text to create superb printed certificates.

To set the border of a pedigree, first display it in the main window, then select Page Border from the Configure menu and select from the various options.
