suggest using anaconda (http://continuum.io/downloads) instead of
ActiveState python. Anaconda is a very well supported scientific python
distribution. It also makes it extremely easy to install the RDKit (

This error is usually due to the fact that libpng is missing on the system
or was not compiled into PIL/Pillow.
On Windows I believe that the latter is more likely to be the case. This
stackoverflow question makes it look like there's a problem with the
activestate pil build and that you will need to install that yourself from
another place:
