A place I worked at during the dot-com era had a large format printer[0] and the DBAs would occasionally print database schema diagram posters that they would hang on the walls. It was amazingly useful, especially as we staffed up and had a lot of new employees.
@thristian - can you specify a paper size?
[0] That once the marketing department found out about, was always out of ink.
- thristian 3y agoSo far as I can tell, GraphViz does not allow you to specify a paper size. However, if you render to SVG, you can open the result in Inkscape and rearrange things fairly easily. That's not quite as convenient as having it done automatically, but GraphViz can struggle with laying out a complex schema even when assuming infinite space - some amount of hand-tweaking is going to be necessary regardless.
