Arrow in Visio has a "Geometry" part which has regular "2D" drawing
commands.
"1D" section seems to be used only to instruct Visio to keep end points of
the arrow/connector.

Actually there are very limited number of non-MS tools able _to read_ VSD,
that's the reason to be surprised about something which can only read VSD.

If by "Visio diagrams" you meant VSD, then at the moment the only free
software tool capable to do it (VSD->SVG) with acceptable quality is this
