Drawing ER-Diagram using alternative packages
TeX - LaTeX Asked by frad on August 9, 2021
I have found some packages to draw ER-Diagrams using Tikz, but I don’t like the final result (it has big rhombuses for associations, big ovals for attributes and so on). I’d like to draw ER-diagram like the following one
using these shapes
I am not able to find any package in order to get this result. Do you have any suggestions?
One Answer
One possibility is the MetaPost expressg package which provides facilities to assist in drawing box-line-annotation (BLA) diagrams such as EXPRESS-G, IDEF1X, OMT, Shlaer-Mellor, NIAM, ER, UML and similar diagrams.
On my texlive installation doing texdoc expressg will result in several different examples of its possibilities. To see if it is on your installation do kpsewhich expressg.mp. It can be downloaded from https://ctan.org/pkg/expressg
