Is there a way to export the .edmx diagram from VS2008 to Visio?

Some people want to see the DB structure and dont have VS, is there a way to do this? Or any other way to export it outside of a screencapture (it is a huge diagram).

Thank you.

You can right click on the design surface and select Diagram -> Export as Image and you get the entire edmx model generated as bmp

The image export is okay, but it would still be extremely useful if I could export and .edmx to Visio or if Visio could import an .edmx file.
