Sharepoint designer workflow copy

Question

is it possible to copy list workflow developed in Sharepoint designer 2013 from one  site collection to another. I have to build on another site collection similar form library and it has the same worklow as one I developed earlier.

Is there a way to export to visio.. I have seen in posts that it can be done. But in my sharepoint designer that option is disabled (export to Visio is grayed out), and import option is enabled. I don't understand why?

It is advisable to create a reusable workflow from designer, if you want to move to another site. Move/migrate a list and designer workflow to SharePoint 2013: http://expert-advice.org/sharepoint/migrate-list-sharepoint-designer-workflows-sharepoint-2010-sharepoint-2013/

You can copy a list workflow, but it is a bit of a hack.

This guide is for designer 2010, but it also works in designer 2013.
