Most of the graphics type people that I know prefer SVG because it is
scalable. You design one image and it will scale auto-magically with no
loss of detail. The advantage is that after you design a logo (or
whatever) it should look good small or large. Also, I thought that it
was stored as text so that if you know SVG you can edit it in a regular
text editor.
I won't bother with the reasons to use Draw rather than SVG since you
obviously already know what they are. I never even checked to see if
Draw can handle SVG.
Was thinking about creating a new cover for my book, but I can't say
that I have any talent in that area :-(

Hello Klaus
I am puzzled as to why the graphics for the front and rear cover art for the
guides is in SVG format.
Using SVG format does make it a little awkward if you want to do a quick
change or correction to the cover art. I came across this when I wanted to
update the front and rear covers for the Math Guide to version 4.4. Jean and
myself have managed this, but it should be a lot simpler.
Inkscape is an SVG editor, but has a very steep learning curve which I do
not have time to learn. My suggestion is that we use LibreOffice Draw to
create the front and rear covers for LO guides. Draw is capable in my
opinion and would look better using LibreOffice to create all content for
the user guides. Is there any reason why we do not use LO Draw?
