Hello. I can't export svg file to jpg format. When I try to export my svg file to jpg format, the file is not exported and the following error message appears:
"Traceback (most recent call last): File "F:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\raster_output_jpg.py", line 28, in <module> JpegOutput().run() File "F:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\inkex\base.py", line 254, in run self.load_raw() File "F:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\inkex\base.py", line 268, in load_raw document = self.load(self.file_io) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "F:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\inkex\extensions.py", line 166, in load from PIL import Image ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PIL'"
Tyler - I think the latest version of 1.4.2 has fixed this. If I remember correctly, when v1.4.2 was first released, it had this issue. Within a few days, it was fixed and rereleased. A few thousand bad downloads was the result (including me🤣).

What does this mean? And how can I fix it?
It look like this is a bug in Windows, some versions of 1.4. https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/10573
Reproduced here in 1.4.2 Windows 10. Not reproduced in 1.4.2 under Linux Mint.
The fix might be reported here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5180
I would expect the next bugfix release to have the repair.

Lol, I though for sure I had installed that version after the announcement. 🤪
Thank you!
