Saving books to disk using {author_sort}
In my save preferences my Save Template is {author_sort}/{title}/{title} - {authors} but books are saved in folders named by the author first-name last-name.
e.g. "Beyond Good and Evil" is stored in the folder "Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche\Beyond Good and Evil (1146)" when I want it to be stored in "Nietzsche, Friedrich Wilhelm\Beyond Good and Evil" I can never rember Nietzsche's first name so the book becomes hard to find. Calibre seems to be using {authors}/{title}/{title} - {authors} instead of the save template that I have set. I am not sure where the (1146) comes from. Why does Calibre not seem to use the template - is there a way to recify this? (Do I need to re-import all of my books?). |

Thanks Doc.
I kind of came to that conclusion after posting and having more of a play. I use Sigil to edit books and Balabolka sometimes to read books aloud when I'm dog tired. Thats why I wanted to locate the books outside of Calibre. Its no big deal though so thanks for your confirmation. |

Open With is totally fantastic. Thank you for suggesting it. I can now open Sigil, Balabolka and Paint Shop directly from Calibre.
CHEERS! |
