I posted before about not being able to export a Jupyter notebook, to another format, such as pdf, and getting an error about nbconvert not working right.

Apparently, when I try to download a notebook from Jupyter notebooks, I get the same issue.

```julia
nbconvert failed: Inkscape executable not found

```

You need the software Inkscape because the Jupyter runtime uses some libraries from Inkscape to generate the pdf (I believe).
