Feature Highlights

Broad picture of database structure

Documenter extracts an extensive database info including a wide range of SQL object types, their details, and properties, as well as inter-object dependencies and DDL codes.

Rich customization features

Documenter supports a selection of individual database objects and their properties that will be documented. The tool also contains a rich set of style templates as well as allows changing documentation layout using various Bootstrap themes.

Formats supported

Documenter creates documentation in HTML, PDF, and Markdown file formats. HTML is suited for databases to be published on the web, and PDF is good for distributing to various systems and devices. Both formats are searchable, which is very convenient especially for large databases.

Extended properties support

With MS_Description properties supported, you can add annotations to every SQL object including views, tables, columns, indexes, foreign keys, stored procedures, etc.

Searchable documentation

Search across the generated documentation for database objects. As you type the name of a required object in the search field, Documenter highlights the matching text in the object tree. You can also navigate throughout the documentation via build-in hyperlinks.

SSMS Integration

Documenter integrates seamlessly with SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). Databases may be documented directly from the Object Explorer of your SSMS solution.

dbForge Developer Bundle for SQL Server

Documenter is a part of dbForge Developer Bundle for SQL Server - an ultimate kit of fourteen database development and management tools for SSMS. Purchasing the single kit will save you 50% of the cost of each tool as compared to purchasing them individually.
