How to get rid of the white background of MS Visio files by PDF-Conversion?

Solution
You can resize the page to precisely fit the drawing. If you're using Visio 2010, you'll find it under the Design tab in the Size menu. That should get rid of the extra white surrounding the shapes in the diagram.
Problem
I am currently drawing some charts and diagrams using MS Visio. But when I convert them into pdf for using in Latex-Documents, I get the whole page of the vsd-file, and not just the diagrams etc. So the entire page will be converted into pdf. Since I don't have access to tools such as Adobe Acrobat Pro etc., I also can't cut the diagram from the pdf-file just so. Adobe Reader hasn't got any alike function except the snapshot, which only helps if I copy it into MS Word or so. I am not an expert of MS Office, so I also can't convert to the pdf from MS Word, without having page background. So the question is, is it possible to only convert the diagrams/charts or selections into pdf in -preferably- Visio or Word? Thanks!
