One way is to just convert it to svg, and then edit it with an editor
or with Inkscape. Here's my shellscript to convert a dia file to a
plain svg file:

My main reason for using dia is the nice sticky connectors. Once I've
finalized everything's position, I can just convert to SVG. I keep the
dia file in case I need to move stuff around again, in which case I can
reconvert.
