Export
ConceptDraw Project allows to export document to formats
MindMap Outline, MS Project XML and ConceptDraw
XML. This gives you a possibility to share the document with your colleagues
working with other programs or keep working with ConceptDraw Project document
in a corresponding program.
Export to MindMap Outline
Use Export / MindMap Outline in menu File.
Dialog Save As will appear. In this dialog indicate the path
on your hard disk, where you want the document to be saved. Dialog Export
to Outline will open.


In this dialog you can set indent type (Tabulation or Space)
and indicate whether subprojects should be included to the exported document
(option Include subprojects).
Closing the dialog, do not forget to press OK to save settings.
Then this file can be opened in ConceptDraw MindMap, which will make
it a mindmap of the following kind:

In ConceptDraw MindMap it can be not only viewed but also edited,
and then imported back to ConceptDraw Project.
Task: Let’s export our document to MindMap Outline. Select
tabulation as an indent type. As our project does not include any subprojects,
then it doesn’t matter whether this option is activated.
Additional information: Outline format is a text format in
which data is stored in accordance with the strict hierarchy and is divided
by indents. This format allows to visualize such a document in accordance with
data representation in this specific program. For instance, ConceptDraw MindMap basing on the document builds up mindmaps.
If you open this document from file manager, it will
have the following look:

Export to MS Project XML
Exporting to MS Project XML not only diagram but also resources are
exported.

In this dialog, it’s specified which projects should be exported: all projects
or just one specific project (in this case, a project is selected from the pop
up list).
Closing the dialog, do not forget to press OK to save settings.
This file can be opened in MS Project, where it can be not only viewed
but also edited and then imported back to ConceptDraw Project.

Task: Let’s export our document to MS Project XML. As there
is only one project in our workspace, then it doesn’t matter which option will
be selected.
Additional information: XML format is a text format, a way
of markup of documents intended to build some structure in documents and to
define relations between different elements of this structure. In this format
data is stored in hierarchically organized tree-type structure.

This dialog specifies the projects to be exported: all the documents or some
specific one (in this case the document is chosed from the pop-up list ), and
also whether any subprojects should be included.

As there is only one project in our workspace, then in this case it is not so
important which option will be chosen.
Closing the dialog do not forget to press ÎÊ , to
save your settings.
then this file can be opened in ConceptDraw, where it can
be not only viewed, but also edited.

various formats: graphical, HTML, PowerPoint, PDF,
Flash, PostScript etc., which will considerably extend possibilities
