Aspose.Diagram is a class library for working with Microsoft Visio files. It allows developers to work with VSD and VDX files on ASP .NET web applications, web services and Windows applications. It allows you to open files and manipulate the elements of the diagram, from lines and fills, to more complex elements, and then export to native Visio formats or XML.
The class library is an alternative to the Microsoft Vision Object Model and provides a better performance. It makes use of the advanced functionality of Visio's services to manipulate Visio documents on a server. The API is extensible, easy to use and compact. It provides common functionality so that developers have to write less code when performing common tasks.
Aspose.Diagrams is aimed at developers who need to work with Visio files form within their own applications. It allows you to manipulate the file format quickly and easily, saving time and effort in developing a solution for working with these files.
