Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is a BPMN (Business Process Modelling Notation) to Image convertor. So a user can upload an BPMN file, which is translated to a thumnail image which can be shown on the page (as can be done with normal images). I looked on the extension page, but I could find any.
Could someone help me out?
Thanks,
With regards,
Paul van Erk
According to Wikipedia (emphasis mine)[1]:
"The Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is a standardized *graphical notation* for drawing business processes in a workflow. "
Thus it would seem that BPMN is already an image file of some kind. Making an image thumbnail should be the same as with any image[2].

Actually, it seems just to be some sort of language to model graphs (with specific predefined layouts).
You could try to use Graph::Easy for it:

If you need help, dropme an email :)
All the best,

Guys,
I will try the Graph to make the image. Thanks for your help. I appreciate it!
