Saving files
By default, SMART Notebook software saves your files in .notebook format. Anyone with SMART Notebook 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.
You can also set SMART Notebook software to save your file automatically when you select a different page or after a specified period of time (see Saving files automatically).
Note
The default file format for SMART Notebook 8, 9.0 and 9.1 is .xbk. If you want to open your file in one of these versions, save your file with the .xbk extension. However, the .xbk format doesn’t support some of the objects and properties available in this version of SMART Notebook software. If you save your file in the .xbk format, SMART Notebook software doesn’t save the properties in your file that the .xbk format doesn’t support or else it saves them as images that you’re unable to edit when you open the file.
