Display a visio diagram on a web page

There are several ways to display a Visio diagram on a Web page—such as on a blog, in SharePoint, or with a Web application. Floor charts, timelines, process flows, network diagrams, and so forth are more discoverable and useful when used on the Web. Moreover, saved changes to the original diagram in Visio are automatically reflected on the Web page, which means stakeholders and other viewers see up-to-date diagrams.
