Subject: convert VSD (Visio) file to EPS ?
Hello, WR-L-ers,
Googling shows that there are many paths to converting a Visio VSD file
(yes, VSD, not VSDX, because Iâm still using my old Visio 2007) to EPS,
which I want to do to get images into a PDF thatâs produced by
Doxygen-generated LaTeX output that I input to TeXworks.
Iâm assuming that with so many methods to do this, the results will range
from excellent to poor, in terms of good quality/hi-res images. (Using
Illustrator to convert from the Visio-output PNG file to an EPS file results
in rather blurry images. There are many options in Illustrator, so perhaps
itâs fixable. But Iâd assume that itâs better [edit here] to start with the
source VSD file than the converted PNG file anyway.)
So, is anyone already doing this VSD->EPS conversion with good results? If
so, please share your method.
Hoping to save some experimentation time,
-Monique
