>>Can you export to html or
No with this you cannot export to HTML.
>>will user need SSMS installed to view it?
Yes the user needs to Install the SSMS. The ER diagram from the this is not so useful.
I suggest you to go for powerdesigner from SAP.

Note - I have personally used this, it is free for 30 days and if you request you can extend that for 6 months. It is very easy to use and can be used with any database (RDBMS)
This time should be fine for you to create the diagram and use it. You can also export to HTML and you can also create the data dictionary from this in HTML format.
