Nbconvertapp does not exist

Question

I'm on Ubuntu, I'm using Python 2.7.6 and Ipython 4.0.3. I am trying to convert ipynb file to pdf file. It gives the following error:

ipython nbconvert --to pdf mine.ipynb 
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named nbconvert.nbconvertapp

I searched the last line and did not find anything. Any idea is appreciated. Thanks.
