Hi, I've upgraded to Inkscape v1.0 on Windows 10.

Using the command-line, as follows:

inkscape.exe --export-area-page --pdf-page=1 --export-text-to-path --export-background=ffffff --export-background-opacity=0.0 --export-plain-svg --export-overwrite --export-type=svg --export-filename=sample_file.svg sample_file.pdf

What I found out is that, if I run this command several times, within 6-10 attempts, the output SVG will be in different units.

Sometimes it will be in points (pt), for example, a few lines from the <svg> node:

<svg
   xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
   xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"
   xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
   xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
   xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
   xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
   xmlns:sodipodi="http://sodipodi.sourceforge.net/DTD/sodipodi-0.dtd"
   xmlns:inkscape="http://www.inkscape.org/namespaces/inkscape"
   sodipodi:docname="sample_file.pdf"
   id="svg14"
   version="1.2"
   viewBox="0 0 115.5 153"
   height="153pt"
   width="115.5pt">

While, other times, the units will be in pixels (unspecified units), example from the same file (same input, same exact command):

<svg
   xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
   xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"
   xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
   xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
   xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
   xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
   xmlns:sodipodi="http://sodipodi.sourceforge.net/DTD/sodipodi-0.dtd"
   xmlns:inkscape="http://www.inkscape.org/namespaces/inkscape"
   sodipodi:docname="sample_file.pdf"
   viewBox="0 0 154 204"
   height="204"
   width="154"
   xml:space="preserve"
   id="svg2"
   version="1.1">

Why is the resulting SVG file inconsistent with the units.

I would prefer if it behaved as version 0.92.4, when the result would be always in pixels / unspecified units.

Thanks!
