How can someone see my FlowCharts without DrawIo? I need to send some of my flow charts, but they do not have draw.io installed on their system.

What file format should I save my charts PDF, TXT, etc.) ?

I would recommend PDF, PNG, or HTML

PDF will create a PDF file
PNG will output an image that can be embedded in a document or email easily
HTML will create a file that can be opened in browser with a bit more
interactability, or be shared thru a web host provider

Try out different export options, to see what you think would fit
their tech skill level best!

Also, you could instruct the recipient to go to
https://app.diagrams.net/ -- they can open your .drawio file in
browser directly without needing to install anything!

Hi,

Don't save it for that action, use the export option in File Menu
