Strange.
I find importing Visio files as OLE objects (from Visio 2000 to FM 7.2)
to work just fine. When I try to File>Insert>File (by reference) it
doesn't recognize the Visio file format, and Visio is not in the list.
Perhaps my version of Visio is too old.

Import graphics by reference. From Visio, this means PDF or EPS
created from
PDF. Works for me like a charm. (Actually, I usually go furhter and
import
that into illustrator, edit from there, and use the AI--PDF as Dov
rightfully notes--in FM.)

Windows 2000 or especially Windows XP to Vista. Unless
you have a brand new system with tons of memory, dual

disk space, use of Vista to support typical FrameMaker
and associated support programs (including Photoshop,
Illustrator, and Acrobat) buys you precious little other
than a sluggish system. Best idea is to wait until you
need to replace your current computers.
