Hi Pedro-san and all, I am not a designer either, and I have no coding knowledge at all. Of course, I have no skill to edit SVG. However, I do have an idea.
I also like the "blue to red gradient". The reasons are as follows: 1. We take pride in Apache OpenOffice. 2. Although our development speed is certainly slow and we are only now reaching version "5", we have confidence in its stability and security. 3. It is fair to say that this stability and security are maintained by being a part of or a project of Apache. 4. Through the logo, we can express that while "Apache OpenOffice 5" maintains the traditional stability and security of OpenOffice, with this major release "5", it has truly evolved into an Apache project. That's all from me. Thanks, Kazunari Hirano On Wed, Oct 21, 2026 at 7:01 AM Pedro Lino via dev < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Jim > > Can Affinity export to SVG?
