I was beginning to suspect the other vector formats do not support some
of the features of SVG. I ran into similar issues 20 or so years ago
with vector file formats.
The special effects did not work for her in her PDF file, but it did for
me. I find out if that option is turned on in her Inkscape install.
It looks like Inkscape doesn't export/save jpg files. :-( Hope that's
remedied in the next version. We've discovered that PNG is not always
the best file format. What bothers me most about the format is the
sheer size, since it's lossless, just like TIFF.

This sounds like a problem.
Generally, the "special effects" (Filters menu) will not survive the
journey *out* of SVG.
In the PDF export screen there's the option to turn the filters into
bitmaps - that's the only way those effects make it through. (This can
make the file rather large - depending on the size of your drawing and
the number of parts that are effects.)
I think exporting a range of jpg files in various sizes will work best
for you.
