SUMMARY
This article describes how the Save As HTML converter works in Microsoft Visio.



MORE INFORMATION
When you save Microsoft Visio drawings as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) documents, Visio converts the drawings into a format that can be viewed in a Web browser. To do this, Visio creates a number of different files and file types. For example, if you save a one page drawing called MyDrawing as HTML, Visio generates the following files:   File name                    Description -  MyDrawing.htm                The default page MyDrawing1_raster.htm       Called by the default page for viewing MyDrawing1_raster.gif       Image called by the default HTM MyDrawing_utils.js          Java Script MyDrawing_nav.htm           Navigation frame MyDrawing_frame.htm         Drawing frame lt_off.gif                  Navigation button lt_over.gif                 Navigation button rt_off.gif                  Navigation button rt_over.gif                 Navigation button These files provide the functionality that allows multiple pages to be saved using the initial set of &quot;extra&quot; frame and navigation files.

For each new page of a Visio drawing saved as HTML, Visio creates an additional pair of files. For example, if a drawing called MyDrawing has three pages, Visio creates the following four additional files when you save the drawing as HTML:

MyDrawing2_raster.htm

MyDrawing2_raster.gif

MyDrawing3_raster.htm

MyDrawing3_raster.gif

Notice the additional sequence number added to the file name.
