I kept getting the error \"Inkscape executable not found\" (from nbconvert/nbconvert/preprocessors/svg2pdf.py). After looking though the code, I realized it was grabbing the path from the windows registry. However there were at least 2 problems for me:\r\n\r\n1) inkscape doesn't associate svg files with inkscape.exe (so the path wouldn't exist in the registry yet) right away after installation\r\n\r\n2) after I manually associated svg files with inkscape, the association is added to the registry, but it added to a different key than svg2pdf.py expects\r\n\r\nTo expand on (2):\r\nsvg2pdf tries to get the path from the registry key \"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\\\SOFTWARE\\\\Classes\\\\inkscape.svg\\\\DefaultIcon\" which did not exist after I made the association in the Windows \"open with\" menu. \r\n\r\nHowever, the following key does exist: \"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\svgfile\\shell\\Inkscape\\command\" and points to inkscape.\r\n\r\nI solved this by adding the expected key to the registry, but I think the code should be updated.\r\n\r\nThanks!\r\n\r\nLet me know i f you need any more information.\r\n\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/comments/265287118","html_url":"https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/456#issuecomment-265287118","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/456","id":265287118,"user":{"login":"michaelpacer","id":2482408,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2482408?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer","html_url":"https://github.com/michaelpacer","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/michaelpacer/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-12-06T22:02:59Z","updated_at":"2016-12-06T22:02:59Z","body":"Trying to clean up issues that were dealt with, I misread this and thought it had been addressed.
