About:
Nektony VSDX Annotator is a specialized macOS utility for handling Microsoft Visio VSDX files. It enables users to preview diagrams without the Visio application, add annotations and comments, and convert drawings to widely-used formats like PDF, PNG, and SVG. The tool is designed for professionals who need to review and share technical diagrams on systems that lack native Visio support.
Key Features:
  • Preview VSDX files without Microsoft Visio
  • Add annotations, comments, and highlights to diagrams
  • Convert Visio drawings to PDF, PNG, and SVG formats
  • Batch processing support for multiple files
  • Intuitive macOS-native interface
Use Cases:
  • Sharing Visio diagrams with Mac users who don't have Visio installed
  • Reviewing and annotating technical drawings in collaborative workflows
  • Converting legacy Visio files to accessible formats for documentation
Alternatives:
  • Microsoft Visio – Full-featured but expensive and Windows-only; VSDX Annotator is Mac-native and focused on viewing/converting
  • LibreOffice Draw – Free alternative with limited VSDX support; Nektony offers better format fidelity and dedicated Visio tooling
