Basic question- Visio to Frame

[Rene Stephenson]

I've been successfully exporting TIF files from Visio and just importing that into FM by reference. The OLE stuff for Visio if FM does work, but it's really quirky/flaky with our files...although, that might be due to still using Visio 2003!!

I've had all kinds of text/font related problems trying to use *.wmf 
files created by Visio in the past. Perhaps things have improved 
since, but I often found text from diagrams had shifted or was 
missing altogether. *.emf files were better but not better enough.

I use Illustrator instead.
