If you want to export to Visio, export to VDX which is the Visio Document XML format. IIRC it's documented on the Microsoft site, and I even wrote a VXD exporter for the Graphviz open source project which I then used for Instaviz. While dev

A video about an iPhone app I wrote. It uses shape recognition and graph layout algorithms to convert your sketches into graphs. Coming soon to the App Store, enjoy the video!
