pil ImageFont error inflateReset2

[djf123]

I am trying to use PIL's ImageFont tool, but I am getting an unusual error message. PIL installs without any problems and I can use other parts of it like Image and ImageDraw. But when I run

from PIL import ImageFont

a window opens with an error message that reads:

Error:
The procedure entry point inflateReset2 could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\Program Files\Inkscape\bin\libpng16-16.dll.

What is causing this error, and How do I fix it? I am using Windows 10 with the IDE Thonny 3.2.7 with Python 3 64-bit.
