By default, SMART Notebook software saves your files in .notebook format. Anyone with SMART Notebook software 9.5 or later for Windows operating systems, Mac OS X operating system software or Linux operating systems installed on his or her computer can open a .notebook file.
Note
The default file format for SMART Notebook software 10 is .notebook, but the default file format for versions 8, 9.0 and 9.1 is .xbk. If you want to open your file in SMART Notebook software 8, 9.0 or 9.1, save your file with the .xbk extension. However, the .xbk format doesn’t support some of the objects and properties available in SMART Notebook software 10. If you save your file in the .xbk format, SMART Notebook software doesn’t save the objects or properties in your file that the .xbk format doesn’t support. Also, if you create text in SMART Notebook software 10 and save your file in .xbk format, you’re unable to edit the text in SMART Notebook software 8, 9.0 or 9.1.
