About SDOCX
Samsung Notes comes on Galaxy phones and tablets, where people write with the S Pen, mark up PDFs and sketch. It saves a note as an .sdocx when you save it as a file, share it, or move it with Smart Switch: a ZIP of the note's pages, each a binary file of layers of strokes, shapes, pictures and text, beside its pictures and PDFs.
Each stroke keeps its points, the pressure the pen felt at each and the pen it was written with, from the fountain pen and the pencil to the highlighter. A note's pages are the size of a sheet of paper, or one long page that scrolls, and a PDF imported into it keeps its pages under the notes written on them.
Filepeek draws every page in your browser into a PDF: each stroke at the width its pen and pressure gave it, highlighters see-through, shapes and pictures, and an imported PDF's own pages as they are, sharp at any zoom. A long page is cut into pages of A4's shape. Typed text isn't drawn, and a note says so.

Questions
How do I open an SDOCX file on a computer?
Drop it on this page or choose Peek an SDOCX. Its pages open in your browser with every stroke, shape and picture, and Export saves them as a PDF, PNG or JPEG.
Can I open Samsung Notes without a Samsung phone?
Yes. Samsung Notes runs only on Galaxy devices and Galaxy Book laptops, but Filepeek opens its .sdocx files on any computer or phone, in the browser.
Why is my typed text missing?
Filepeek draws a note's handwriting, shapes, pictures and PDFs, and the note above the pages says when text typed with the keyboard isn't drawn. Samsung Notes keeps it when it saves the note as a PDF.
How do I turn Samsung Notes into a PDF?
Choose Export, then Save as PDF. Each page is drawn in your browser, its ink as lines that stay sharp when you zoom in, and a PDF it marks up keeps its own text.
