P.S.

If you are interested in only the layout view of relationship and not
designing, a trivial, despised but useful one is M$ Access. (Sorry for the
guard-up.) You can link tables from Postgresql using odbc and manually
create relationships. It's easier to handle and print than most of the
serious tools. (In fact, I find Access better when there are some (~30)
tables.)

There's also postgresql-autodoc which is supposed to create the
relationship diagram from Postgresql database along with documentation.
The documentation is very nice, but the relationship graphic (for use with
AT&T viz package) gets kind of messed up.

www.embarcadero.com has Dbartisan which is commercial and OK.

These are what I tried myself, but I know there are many, many of ERD
tools.
