Adding Books to Device Library

remus.grrrl · 02-10-2011, 03:25 AM

First off, I did a search and couldn't find the answer, if it is there...sorry for asking again.

I use an Ipaq RZ1710 with Microsoft eReader to read my ebooks.

My library for this is on an SD card where just the files are.

When I try to add a book from Calibre to the SD Card within the program, it puts it in a directory. When it does this the reader can't find the book. Is there a way to send the book to the SD card and just put the file on the card and not a directory?

Hope that makes sense.

How do you access the card in Calibre- do you connect to it as a folder, or do you save to disk?

I use save lit only to disk option.

Then you need to change the template in preferences->save to disk. It shouldn't define any subdirectories (no slashes).

Perfect, thank you very much.
