    output : str
        Jinja 2 output.  This is the resulting converted notebook.

        Dictionary of resources used prior to and during the conversion

    exporter_instance : Exporter
        Instance of the Exporter class used to export the document.  Useful
        to caller because it provides a 'file_extension' property which
        specifies what extension the output should be saved as.
