Here is a draft proposal for the idea : Export relations scheme other formats
After doing some studies on this idea I came across is that exporting to SVG and EPS formats is possible with the use of some PHP libraries available.
Sure, these both are basically text formats.
But from what I have found is that for EPS there is no PHP libraries which directly output the EPS file. So I thought of first to create a file with known format(eg - .pdf) and then convert that to EPS format.
Well I guess such conversion would cause even more troubles. Creating postscript manually is not that hard, and once you create some abstraction layer for generating schema, it should be quite straightforward to generate postscript for that.

Using external library when there is an alternative available directly in PHP should have good reasons.
