翻译强力驱动I want to export my BPMN diagrams from Visio 2010 Premium to BPMN 2.0 XML format, which is not default supported by Microsoft, this is their answer:
So, I went searching for some third party plugins, what I found uptil now is only this:
http://bpmn4visio.blogspot.com/
It looks great, but alas, it does not generate proper XML diagrams that are accepted by an XML validator like this:
http://tools.qennix.com/index.php
Does anyone know a method or plugin that does work?
For anyone wondering how to do this, I found a commercial plugin which works very good from ITP Commerece, but alas (very) pricy for just needing to import and export BPMN:
Import of BPMN models into Visio and export of Visio BPMN models compatible with all tools supporting official BPMN 2.0 standard is available by using Enterprise Explorer. It is a commercial tool, although it is not Visio plug-in. It can export and import any Visio models created with regular BPMN stencils shipped by Microsoft along with Visio Professional.
The list of tools supporting BPMN process interchange is maintained on GitHub, updated and automatically tested for all new submissions by OMG BPMN Model Interchange Working Group (BPMN MIWG).
There was a free BPMN-to-Visio converter with source code at : http://bpmn4visio.blogspot.com/2011/05/bpmn-20-xml-export-import-plug-in.html. Unfortunately the links appear to be dead.
