digraph GRAMPS_graph
{
bgcolor=white;
center="true";
charset="iso-8859-1";
concentrate="false";
dpi="75";
graph [fontsize=12];
 
...
 
then the actual GRAMPS data are shown:
I3493 [ shape="box" fillcolor="pink" style="solid,filled" label="Blancke, Charlotte\n(1801)" ];

You can optimize the layout by making changes in the file.
*For paper size, : look around line 36-37 for two lines that define the "page" (paper size) and "size" (area of paper to use), and change these to '''some large values'''. This is important as otherwise the figure will be wrongly scaled giving bad picture quality (eg unreadable text).
*You can also change the font by adding a font family. Look for the lines
node [style=filled fontsize="12"];
