Open Microsoft Visio drawings (.vsdx and older .vsd) right here, without Visio. See every page, search the text, and export to PDF, PNG or SVG. Your browser reads the file; it is never uploaded.
.vsdx, .vsdm, .vstx and .vsd · No sign-up · No file-size cap · Works on Mac, Windows, Linux and Chromebook
Drop a .vsdx or .vsd file on the viewer, or click Choose a file. No account, no upload.
Pages appear as tabs at the bottom. Zoom, pan, and search the text of the whole drawing.
Save a page as PNG or SVG, print all pages or save them as one PDF, or open the drawing in an editor.
Click Export in the viewer. PDF prepares every page of the drawing, one per sheet, each in its own orientation: choose Save as PDF in the print dialog. PNG saves the current page as a high-resolution image, and SVG as a vector image that stays sharp at any size, with the fonts embedded.
The Visio desktop app runs only on Windows. This viewer runs in the browser on Mac, Windows, Linux and ChromeOS, so you can read a drawing a colleague sent you without installing anything or signing in to Microsoft 365.
Most online Visio viewers upload your file to their server to convert it. This one does the work in your browser: the drawing is never sent to sketch2scheme.com or anyone else. Network diagrams, floor plans and org charts often contain things you would rather not upload.
Binary .vsd drawings from older Visio versions are converted in the browser and shown just like .vsdx files, with all their pages. Text search and every export work the same way.
