Creating Medical Pedigree with PSTricks and LaTeX Boris Veytsman & Leila Akhmadeeva Version 0.3, July 2007 This package is a set of macros based on PSTricks to draw medical pedigrees according to the recommendations for standardized human pedigree nomenclature. The drawing commands place the symbols on a pspicture canvas. An interface for making trees is also provided. The package can be used both with LaTeX and PlainTeX. A separate Perl program for generating TeX files from spreadsheets is provided elsewhere on CTAN. To extract the files, run pst-pdgr.ins through latex. Then move the files pst-pdgr.sty & pst-pdgr.cfg to the place where LaTeX files are kept in your system, e. g. /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/pst-pdgr/, and the file pst-pdgr.tex to the place where generic TeX files are kept in your system, e.g. /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/pstricks/pst-pdgr/. The documentation is in the file pst-pdgr.pdf. You may use the provided Makefile to re-typeset it.
