Hi,
yes it is possible. Reverse engineer your physically existing database and database structure will be displayed in form of a diagram.
Create new Workspace and add only few entities to it (you can select several entities on your existing workspace, right click any of them and choose Add into new workspace.)
Then do modifications (change layout and position of tables etc.) and generate HTML/RTF/PDF reports.

Hi,
right click your workspace and choose Add Selected Objects to Workspace and then choose links you wish to add to your workspace.
Or… you can activate the Select Links Automatically option in menu Objects, then select entities on your main workspace and use right click option to add entities and relationships to new workspace.
If you have an entity that has a reference to another entity that you don’t want to have on your workspace then the relationship line cannot be displayed - because end point is missing. You can use graphics instead of entities, e.g. Label Quadrangle.
