So I have this PDB file... Calibre can't open or convert it.
I did a bit of searching and it looks to me like Calibre handles PDB files, but I can't seem to do anything with this book. When I try to open it with the viewer it says "No reader available for format within container. Identity is SDocSilX. Book type is iSilo 3."
I'm running version 0.7.22. |

calibre does not support iSilo books.

A pdb file is like a zip file - just a container for other file types. Calibre cannot handle the iSilo ebook format.

I downloaded iSilo for Windows and saved the book as a txt file, but then when I bring it up in Calibre it loses the line breaks. Is there something else I can try?
