calibre search & replace question
Converted from PDF to EPUB ... now want to fix mistakes.
For example want to change stil to still with CALIBRE search and replace. tried: search for / stil / replace with / still / I want to search for and replace the leading and trailing blanks so as not to mess up words that contain stil. This does not work. I do not know how to enter a string with leading and trailing blanks in the CALIBRE search and replace fields. Anyone help? |

1) you can do this interactively Find (again)/ Replace (and it finds Next), so you see what is being done. 2) IMHO Calibre is mostly intended to replace repetitive things like Page nnn, Author, Title that appear frequently. |
