Since there was another very similar question recently, it seems like it might be worth making the following point: It's far from clear to me that the full generality of Coq proof terms can be represented nicely in natural deduction form, or in any other form that most people are going to want to read. Tactics aren't generally generating proof terms with an eye toward readability, and many subtle aspects of the underlying logic don't match up well with informal mathematical practice.

All this is to say that it's not obvious how such a tool would work; it's not just a matter of no one having bothered to implement a clear specification yet. You would almost certainly need to target a particular domain of proofs to get good results.
