Frequently asked questions
Will complex draw.io diagrams with linked layers convert correctly?+
Static SVG content converts correctly. Linked layers and interactive features are flattened in the SVG export, so the PDF reflects the flattened output.
What if the diagram is wider than a standard page?+
Use a landscape A3 or custom page size to fit wide diagrams without scaling.
Can I embed the SVG-derived PDF directly into a Word document?+
Yes — use Insert > Object > PDF in Word to embed the vector PDF. Alternatively, use the PDF-derived PNG for inline insertion.
