Since, loading of SVG images are now possible with Hollywood 5.0, it would be nice, if snapshots could be saved as SVG, too.
I usually have to provide PDFs of my presentations. Currently, I do that by saving snapshots of my slides as PNGs and convert these to single PDF file. However, scaling of the pdf document is not possible then (or looks ugly otherwise). With SVG snapshots, this wouldn't be true anymore. Dunno, if this is easily possible. I have to admit, I have no clue about SVG
cheers, nexus
