Visio Diagram saved as image. Need to convert back to visio.

[Jeff]

Hi There,

I have to update a technical manual that contains several visio diagrams
that have been converted to images. As these diagrams only require minor
changes, is there a way to convert the images back to visio diagrams?

Thanks

Jeff

if by image, you mean a bitmap format unfortunately no. If the images are
metafile format you might be able to, but they won't have any of the visio
smarts.

Have you not got the original Visio diagram? It will be far easier to
change the Visio diagram and re-save as a graphic file.

Thanks for the reply guys. Unfortunately I don't have the original visio
file. This confirms what I had thought but just wanted to make sure.

How complicated is the diagram? It might be quite easy and quick to
redraw it if there is an image to copy?
