Subject: Re: Publishing Designer ERD's to the Web
Dave,
Yes, this works like a dream regardless of window size. It is not a screen shot, but a copy of the graphical objects. The resolution is as good as the format that you save it in. I'm sure it is a similar mechanism (abeit a manual as opposed to programmatic one) to what Publisher 2000 used.

Igor,
thanks, tried that. it works *some* of the time.
but for busy diagrams, things get truncated. I would have to re-draw everything smaller to get it to fit.
thanks again.

I'm not sure specifically about Designer 9i. But in most ERD tools you could copy the diagram (Edit/SelectAll, then Edit/Copy), and then paste it let's say into Word. Then, you could save it in any format you wish.

All,
Does anybody know how to, instead of printing ERD diagrams to a printer,
to
send the output to an electronic file, preferrably something like a PDF
or
HTML format?
I find it pretty amazing that we only have one option here - to print it
on
paper.
I know somebody figured this out once by installing a print driver that saved the result to an image file of some kind, but I cant find the reference for it.
thanks
PS.. I'm using version 9.02
thanks again
