Feature request. Use SVG as default file format (as soon as possible) #75

Could you please enable the program to save as svg, this would make it really a 
killer app. Because it s an open standard and this will enable you to view your 
notes even in 10 years

But just for the moment this would already enable you to view your notes in any 
browser, which is great!

thanks man

There is no multi-page svg yet, see e.g. 
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Multipage

PDF is an open standard with mulitple page support and a large variety of 
independently developed readers. 

You can convert PDF to SVG or use https://github.com/vbraun/QuillConvert on 
your desktop to create SVG files.

Another vote for using svg as nativ extension. 
Yes PDF is used and supported a lot but it is not a native format for editing. 
Most is often used to exchange data for viewing or commenting. 
Svg can be natively viewed wit with every Web browser! There are several good 
vector graphic editors like Inkscape for the desktop but open source software 
is almost missing on android and for note taking. 

Converting the notes on the desktop into svg does not help for me because I 
need to share the notes directly from my phone / tablet.
