Guide to Merging VSSM Files

Introduction

In this tutorial, you will learn how to merge VSSM (Visio Macro-Enabled Drawing) files using GroupDocs.Merger for .NET. GroupDocs.Merger is a powerful library that enables developers to manipulate and merge various document formats seamlessly.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure you have the following set up:

• Visual Studio installed on your machine.
• GroupDocs.Merger for .NET library. You can download it from here.
• Basic knowledge of C# programming.

Import Namespaces

To get started, import the necessary namespaces for using GroupDocs.Merger in your C# project:

using System; 
using GroupDocs.Merger;
using System.IO;

Step 1: Set Up Output Directory and File Paths

Create variables to define the output directory and file paths where the merged VSSM file will be saved:

string outputFolder = "YourOutputDirectory";
string outputFile = Path.Combine(outputFolder, "merged.vssm");

Replace "YourOutputDirectory" with the path where you want to save the merged VSSM file.

Step 2: Merge VSSM Files

Load the source VSSM file, add another VSSM file to merge, and then save the merged output to the specified file path:

using (var merger = new GroupDocs.Merger.Merger("Your Sample File"))
{
    // Add another VSSM file to merge
    merger.Join("Your Sample File");
    // Merge VSSM files and save result
    merger.Save(outputFile);
}
Console.WriteLine("\nVSSM files merge completed successfully. \nCheck output in {0}", outputFolder);

In the code snippet above:

• "Your Sample File" and "Your Sample File" represent the paths to the VSSM files you want to merge. Replace these with the actual file paths.
