You might like to try OmniGraffle 
<http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/>. It can import and 
export Visio XML files, and export to TIFF, PDF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, and 
EPS.

I started using Adobe Illustraotor 3.0 on a NeXT and have turned out 
tons of diagrams, charts, and illustrations over the years on the Mac 
(3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 8.0, 10). However, OmniGraffle puts the fun back into 
charting, and complex diagrams can be knocked together is seconds. 
Multiple undos, graphic palletes, rubber banding... It's really cool. 
We've even got a diagram of our home computer network!

FWIW, Paul
