Saving UML diagrams as images

You can save UML diagrams as images so that you can use them in other media such as Microsoft® Word documents, presentations, or HTML pages. You can save diagrams in GIF, BMP, JPEG, JPG, or SVG format.

You must have a diagram open.
To save a diagram in an image file:
  1. Right-click in the diagram and click File > Save as Image File.
  2. In the Copy Diagram to Image File window, in the Folder field, specify where to save the image file.
  3. In the File Name field, type a file name.
  4. From the Image Format list, select a file format.
  5. Optional: To automatically replace an image with the same name when you save, select the Overwrite existing file without warning check box.
  6. Click OK.
