Adding formats to catalog
I'm probably just not looking in the right place, but is it possible to add available formats to catalog items?
Thanks.

I simply open the Title in the Metadata editor and Drag n Drop additional formats into the 'formats' area
Notes:
Duplicate formats will replace

There is no 'sanity check on what actual book you drop (you could drop 'War and Peace' into 'Tom Sawyer' ) other than it is a valid book format.

The actual 'Drop' does not complete until you OK the Metadata edit window (Don't move/Delete the source until then)

or use the Red Book with Plus Icon located there

Thanks, but the fault is mine: i wasn't clear in my question:
I'm looking for a way to have the formats already in folders LISTED in the catalog produced by Calibre

There is a Commandline (tool) option:
http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cli/...ibredb-catalog that permits 'Formats' to be included in the Output File.
