No, and nor does any other tool. UML isn't a format, its a way of
doing a diagram. That is UML says "associations will be indicated by
a circle and a line". In fact, UML doesn't have an E-R specification.
I'm not big on E-R, so I don't no if there is a standard file
format for "E-R" diagrams, but I doubt it.
However, EOModeler can create and print E-R diagrams.
