Looking at SVG to MONO? Here's why MONO isn't a standard "save as" target — and what to use.
MONO isn't a normal image format — it's a headerless raw pixel buffer, so there's no meaningful "convert SVG to MONO".
A MONO file is just a stream of raw pixel values (one-bit black-and-white samples) with no width, height or color information stored inside. Anything opening it has to be told the exact dimensions and layout separately — so it isn't a portable image you can simply convert to.
