How to Convert Visio Stencils for Use in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

How to Convert Visio Stencils to ConceptDraw libraries

MS Visio provides users with a number of predefined stencils. Standard Visio stencils contain shapes that are basically used to create diagrams. The shapes can range from simple flow chart boxes or lines to more complicated shapes like servers, racks or anything else that needs to be represented in a graphical form. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM supports the possibility to open Visio stencils. With the introduction of Visio 2013, Microsoft has changed the native file format used in earlier versions of Microsoft Visio. Thus, when you are looking for a professional tool to open and save in the newer Visio 2013 file format on Mac, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is the solution for you. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM file import and export work round-trip with the new Visio VSDX file format and at the same time supports the improved import of VDX file format. To use Visio stencils created with MS Visio 2010 in your diagrams, created with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, follow the steps described in the following article.
