Why convert VSDX to PPTX?
VSDX is a structured diagram format with vector shapes and connectors; PPTX is a presentation format. Most people need to include a Visio diagram in a PowerPoint presentation for a meeting or report, and exporting to an image keeps the diagram readable without requiring the audience to have Visio installed.

- A VSDX file with multiple pages requires a separate export per page; each page becomes its own slide image.
