High Freedom Flowchart and Text Interconversion

Excel has created a flowchart similar to the one below.

The direction of the arrow, as well as the location of the object and the type of border in the text box, are meaningful.

This flowchart is Excel, so I'm using the GUI, but is there a way to export (expression) it based on text?

Simply, if you want to create a flowchart-like diagram from text, I think Graphviz using the DOT language is famous.

You can also find out exactly what you can create in the Gallery above.

Examples of DOT language using Graphviz.

digraph G{
    fontname = "sans-serif";
    splines = "curved";
    penwidth = "0.1";
    edge [ comment = "Wildcard edge", 
          fontname = "sans-serif", 
          fontsize = 10, 
          colorscheme="blues3", 
          color=2, 
          fontcolor=3];
    node [fontname="serif", 
          fontsize=13, 
          colorscheme="blues4", 
          color="2", 
          fontcolor="4" ];
    "n1" [shape="polygon", 
          pos = "0,0!", 
          style="dotted", 
          label=<<U>Text A</U>>];
    "n2" [shape="polygon", 
          pos="2,-1!", 
          label = "Text B" ];
    "n1" - > "n2" [headport="w" ];
    "n3" [shape="none", 
          pos="0, -1.5!" 
          image="hatsuhinode.png", 
          penwidth = "0.0",
          label="];
    "n1" - > "n3";
}

You can save the text as sample.dot and generate an image with the following command:

 dot-Kfdp-n-Tpng-osample.png sample.dot

Reference:

We also used Dotteditor to edit the text.
