I read on the wiki that now svg is natively supported. Hmm.
No. You need to have inkscape installed (and in your PATH) for svg to pdf conversion to work.
FWIW, I cannot find the intermediate file 'm_k_i_v_ChangingField_ILUC.pdf' on my disk either…both graphics files are in the same location, both exist, both are named correctly….
@Hans, could we change the conversion so that it checks for inkscape and gives a more sensible warning if inkscape is absent?
so what is a robust check ...
How about just implementing the unix which command in lua? (untested code) function which(string file) local path = os.getenv("PATH") local splitter = lpeg.splitat(io.fileseparator) local directories = lpeg.match(splitter, path) for dir in directories if io.exists(file.join(dir,file)) then return true end end return false end
