The default Gedcom export contains a lots of extra information needed by GenoPro (position of each object, colors, etc).

If you want a clean and compatible Gedcom file try exporting a Gedcom file with the report Generator. This Gedcom file will offer maximum compatibility however will have some data loss when re-imported with GenoPro..

I have another question concerning the subject: I need to have coding of GEDCOM in Win1250. This is possible to select in the native Export but there is no option to select codepage when I export GEDCOM via Report generator.
Did I miss something?

By default GenoPro use the UTF-8 encoding when saving files to disk, however you can change it to any valid code page.

In file Gedcom.js at line 199, change to the following:

Report.BufferWriteToFile(strFileName, 1250); // Write the content of the buffer to a file encoded in the Windows 1230 (Central European) code page
