Calibre

Source: https://calibre-ebook.com/whats-new

So I just started using calibre on my tablet pc. I have an issue where any italicized text is put in a block with a background the same color of the body. I’m assuming this has a greater z-index so it blocks the text above and below any italicized text.

Hi, is there any way to sync devices directly to Calibre server? I would like to keep the database on a server and sync directly from there. This would allow to leave out syncinc the library to a laptop first. Thanks for your support!

I manage my ebooks locally and then upload them to my calibre-web container via the webui. It’s there an easier way to do this? I no longer use a shared backend storage for fear of corruption/loss so i was looking for an easier way (export plug-in?). Any one have any ideas?

I use the page count plugin plus a template program I adapted from one found online (included below) to build a column that categorizes books by length. (I use this to build collections I use when I’m picking my next to read)

I frequently use Calibre to convert academic papers from PDF to epub, so I can read them on my tablet. But the conversion often results in weird formatting artifacts.

A bit of a long shot, but I guess it doesn’t hurt asking.

Edited meta in Calibre doesn’t stick with the epub file. Is there any method to edit dc: meta in epub and the designated series under series shows up in Calibre?

Hi! Does anybody know how to change the format of the dates to YYYY-MM-DD?

I have 3 different libraries, one for comics, one for TTRPG books, and my main one for actual eBooks. My main library is over 4GB with over 1,000 books.
