There are a variety of ways that Microsoft® Office Visio® 2003 drawings can be shared with everyone who needs to see them. With Microsoft Office 2003, you can save Visio drawings as Web pages
or images, or you can copy the drawings to other Office programs. You can even download the Visio Viewer for easy access to all Visio file types.

Visio 2003 is open showing a process flow drawing.
|
As a project manager, I often need to share my process drawings with people who don't have access to the same tools that I do.
Fortunately, Visio 2003 gives me several options for saving my drawings in other formats.
|
|
The pointer opens the File menu and clicks Save as Web Page. The Save As dialog box opens, and the pointer clicks the Save button. The scene changes to show the drawing displayed in a browser.
|
For example, to get some initial feedback, I can share my drawing on our team SharePoint Web site by choosing the Save as Web Page option. From there, I just complete a few simple steps, and I'm done.
|
|
In Visio, the pointer opens the File menu and clicks Save as. The Save As dialog box opens. In the Save as type box, the pointer finds and clicks JPEG File Interchange Format (*.jpg). The scene changes to show the drawing in the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.
|
I can also save the drawing as an image: I just choose the file type that works best, and then save the image in that format. Now anyone can view my drawing.
|
|
In Visio, the pointer clicks Copy Drawing on the Edit menu. The scene changes to show the drawing in a Microsoft Office Word document.
|
When my project spec is ready for review, I can copy my drawing into Word 2003 in just a few clicks. This way I can add context to the drawing and share the results with the entire team.
|
|
In the Microsoft Download Center, the Visio Viewer 2003 page opens. The pointer clicks the Download button, and the scene changes to show the drawing in the Visio Viewer.
|
If I decide not to save the drawing as a separate file format, I can point people to the Visio Viewer — available for free from the Microsoft Download Center. With the Visio Viewer, my team can easily view my drawings, even if they don't have Visio installed.
|
|
The drawing appears in Visio again. The pointer points to Send To on the File menu, and then clicks Mail Recipient (as Attachment). The scene changes to an e-mail message being addressed and typed. The pointer clicks Send.
|
Whichever method I choose, I just attach my drawing to an e-mail message, and click Send. It's that simple.
Visio 2003 makes it easy for me to create and share my work with the right people, whether or not they use the same tools I do.

Visio 2003 disappears. The animated text Experience your own great moments appears. Under it appears the URL http://www.microsoft.com/office.
