I've created a drawing of a flat metal part I'm having cut out of metal with a plasma cutter. The company making the parts needs a .dxf file. I've tried saving the drawing as .dxf type.
When saving I get the following messages.
Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The script did not return an error, but this may indicate the results will not be as expected.
The fantastic lxml wrapper for libxml2 is required by inkex.py and therefore this extension.Please download and install the latest version from http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/lxml/, or install it through your package manager by a command like: sudo apt-get install python-lxml
Technical details: No module named lxml
I click "ok" then I get a message saying the file can't be saved.
