RTF Title author info?
I've got a bunch of RTF that don't have Title and author info that will display on the reader. Each file does have the title and author in the filename. Is there a good tool that can take the info from the filename and add it to the RTF title and author info? Otherwise doing each by hand is going to take a VERY long time.
Thanks! |

Are you aware that you can do this with an individual RTF file by opening it in MS Word, selecting File-Properties and entering title and author there? Or are you just looking for a batch program?

Alternatively, use my little "Gutenburg Converter" app from the bottom of this thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8388 . It'll convert any txt to rtf, and allow you to set author, title, font, etc.etc.
Cheers, Robert |

You can try to use macros in Word to batch process the rtf files, making their titles equal to file names. See my post here:

Would sure appreciate any leads on any potential programs that perform batch editing, or other ideas. Thanks |

When the books are added use Calibre to send them to your device. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 05-30-2010 at 11:25 PM. |
