Frequently asked questions
Is converting VSD to EMF free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my VSD files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because drawing a VSD file needs Inkscape, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the VSD file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the EMF look the same as the VSD?
The shapes stay shapes, so the EMF looks like the VSD at any size. Fonts the converter does not have are replaced, and effects the EMF cannot hold are simplified.
Can I convert several VSD files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
