What SQL Pretty Printer is

SQL Pretty Printer reformats SQL for easier reading and can create syntax-colored document output. Its free online formatter works without signup or installation and supports more than 30 database dialects, including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, and BigQuery. Online scripts are sent to the maker’s server for formatting, while the privacy policy says queries are not stored there. The Windows desktop version works offline and outputs text, colorful HTML, and RTF. Desktop and add-in pages describe more than 80 formatting options and predefined layout templates. Command-line batch mode processes SQL files in nested directories. Add-ins are available for Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio, with Visual Studio conversion between SQL and C# or VB.NET. The listed plan costs $50, paid once, billed $50, with one year of free upgrades and a 60 day unconditional money-back guarantee.
