How to extract text and images from an .mobi file (ebook)?
I would like to extract the contents of a .mobi file.
With an epub file I can extract the content with WinRAR but when I try with a .mobi, the only thing I can do is open it and see the contents. As soon as I try to open a file inside or extract something I have an error message telling me that the file is damaged. (For now, I have only tried with the WinRAR software and not with my script for epub files, so I do not have any code to show you) I do not think it has a DRM, I downloaded the file from Project Gutenberg If this way does not work... is there another way? |

Add mobi to calibre library.
Use calibre convert function Simples. If I don't have calibre, get it, find out what it can do... It is free. It also has an editor, which is a simpler way to view and copy content. |

If you want to script it, probably the easiest thing to do is use kindleunpack.

I can not use Calibre. I need to be able to do this via a php script because it has to work on a server. My supervisor refuses to make something work that he can not control
