FAQ
VSD to EMF Conversion
What are VSD files?
VSD is the binary drawing format of Microsoft Visio, used by Visio 5 through Visio 2010 before VSDX replaced it. A file of this type stores a diagram of one or more pages, with shapes, connectors, layers, masters, stencils references, text, and shape data, and it was the standard for flowcharts, network maps, floor plans, and engineering schematics for more than a decade. Many archives still contain VSD files, because the format was never dropped from Visio's save options: current versions can open it and write it back, although new work is saved as VSDX. The format is proprietary and compact, but it is harder for other applications to read than the newer XML-based formats.
What are EMF files?
EMF (Enhanced Metafile) is a format used by the Windows operating system to store spooling information connected to printing. The term "spooling" comes from the acronym for "simultaneous peripheral operations online" and represents the creation of a list of tasks scheduled for completion by Windows at a later time. EMF files can contain vector or bitmap components and they replaced the original WMF (Windows Metafile) format, using a 32-bit structure instead of a 16-bit one and thus providing better quality of printing.
