Re: [graphviz-interest] BPMN font with graphviz ?

It's been a long time since I drew flowcharts/activity diagrams with
graphviz, but I don't think there's a great fit with the BPMN visual
notation.  If nothing else, swimlanes were a key part of our activity
diagrams (and are commonly used in BPMN) and I never had a lot of luck
trying to get something similar in graphviz.

You might consider the tools from yWorks: yEd, an interactive editor
has automatic layout and includes BPMN notation, and is free to use
IIRC.  The programming library version yFiles is not, I believe.
