Glo Setting fonts for certain book "news" calibre ePub and calibre questions

wakkaday · 05-22-2016, 05:15 PM

I am using a Fetch news source in calibre to send to my kobo daily
This works fine but the fonts are sometimes all over the place as I adjust them for other books etc

Is there a way of configuring a font size for these news source articles

Also with calibre I have shelves
And in my glo hd I have my collections

Is there a way these can sync so I can move books in genres

I can't remember how to create different texts under shelves in calibre at the moment I have two i.e political and biography and I wanted a few more

Another question I had is how can I sync that the calibre library is exactly the same as my glo hd and vice Versa

I want them to replicate each other

I have installed kobo utilities

Many thanks

The Kobo Utilities plugin has an option to set the font for a book already on the device. For new books, you would need to send the book to the device, disconnect and let it process the books and then reconnect. At that point you can set the font for the books.

For collections, see https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kobo...nd_Collections for how to set them from calibre.

To get your device library exactly the same as your calibre library, connect the device and look at the "On device" column. If there is a tick, the book is on the device. If there isn't, calibre doesn't think the book is on the device. To "fix" this, send the book to the device.
