That, of course, is true. On my linux boxes python and most (if not all) of the needed libraries are already installed. I played around on Windows as a non-privileged user to mimic the situation with work PCs that are still stuck with Windows XP and where you aren't allowed to install any software (only workaround is to use portable applications - that exist e.g. for LibreOffice or Inkscape). Both NoteToSvg and SQLiteSpy work without installation on these computers. Only problem in this situation might be the print-to-pdf functionality that might require an installed ghostscript version.

A portable version of Calibre supporting the import and embedding of freehand notes would be really convenient.
