Printing and Previewing Database Diagrams

You can print a database diagram to get a useful picture of the database structure to refer to or distribute. You can preview the page breaks in the database diagram. You can also further customize the way your printed database diagram will look by changing the layout of the database diagram and by specifying the table views in the diagram.

Before you print, arrange the objects in the database diagram to your satisfaction. You can change the size, shape, and position of objects in the diagram without affecting their definitions in the database.

To change the layout of the diagram, move, size, and shape the objects. For example, you can use the mouse to move or size tables, or use the automatic layout command to automatically reposition the objects in relation to the selected object or objects.
