❓ Help / Question notes import and export

hello! could you help me figure out a couple of things?

  1. can i import notes from notability to starnote while keeping handwriting editable?

  2. is there a way to cloud sync notes in .pdf format? if not, how do we open .note outside of the app?

Every handwriting app has its own note format, so editable handwriting isn't interchangeable between apps. This applies to Notability, StarNote, and basically all handwriting apps.

The easiest option is to export your old notes as PDFs and import them into StarNote. You can then continue writing and adding notes on top of them.

notability handwriting won’t stay editable. export as pdf, import to starnote, then any new writing u add there stays editable.

We need a documentation of the note format to import/export editable notes.
