I had yesterday a problem that, xournal crashed several times when I was trieing to give the order to print my handnotes into a PDF, or saving it as a PDF. After that the file was crupped and I wasn't able to open it again.
I'm very sorry to hear this. This should never happen. Was your disk full? If you were saving a .xoj file to a .pdf, how come the .xoj became corrupted? (did you save it again while your disk was filling up?). If it is not cropped too badly, and the contents are not too confidential, email me your cropped xoj file (my last name at math.berkeley.edu) and I'll see if I can recover the beginning of it.
