VSDM to DDS Conversion: FAQ
What are VSDM files?
VSDM is a relatively recent extension introduced for Microsoft Visio, launched as part of the Microsoft Office 2013 pack. The format represents an upgrade of Visio's former proprietary extensions: VSD and VDX. VSDM files contain vector drawings that can store and execute macro images when opened. They are only compatible with Visio 2013 and they tend to have a large size, so for easier storing, transferring and accessibility, we recommend converting them to more widely used formats.
What are DDS files?
DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).
