Re: Using Zim as document editor

 

 For the save/export side, one possibility would be to do this:-- in Zim do File -> Print to Browser.-- in the browser, print or save to PDF. (The details of how do this vary by browser and o/s. You may have to install things and configure the browser.
There's also in zim a File -> Export... with other formats (markdown in particular).
This doesn't address the import side, though.
