In oder to use svg wrapper, the size of an image is necessary; I thought it needs an extra library like PIL, (I don't hesitate to use the PIL if it was just for my private use.) To avoid using the extra library, I wrote that style. Thanks, Last edited by tkeo; 02-25-2014 at 08:17 AM. |

I would stick with your approach, though. I asked mainly because I couldn't find where that string was created, at first glance. Quote:
Of course, I quickly cobbled that together--I suspect it might break easily. Probably needs to be some basic error-handling to make it die a little more gracefully if that happens. |

How hard would it be to be able use this to update the meta information inside a mobi (like mobi2mobi) instead of unpacking it?

There's lots of code in Kindleunpack used for accessing the EXTH data. But with the exception of a few routines in the portion that splits hybrid mobi/kf8's, it's not really geared toward modifying existing binary kindlebooks "on the fly," so to speak.

But this is probably you best place to start if you want to have a stand-alone modern python-based mobi2mobi kind of function. The other alternative would be the calibre source code, which (obviously) already has code to create Mobipocket format files. |

This is an automatic conversion by calibre but there are lots of correction required in ePub before convert to KF8. So what are the changes required in ePub thats I want to know... rgds, Shyamu |

If using Kindlegen or Kindle Previewer, there are some Amazon-specific changes you could make (see the Amazon documentation), but that's to turn the ePub into source for Kindlegen rather than changes to the ePub to make it a better ePub. |

A recommended addition to the ePub is to ensure that it has a inline TOC. Some conversion techniques won't include the ePub TOC so you need on in the document itself.

Have a very limited expertize in Python but have a pressing need to edit some fields in exth of existing azw3.
Looking at mobi_split code I found all function needed for editing mobi file and saving result to azw3, that is read_exth, del_exth, and add_exth. In my case I don't have mobi but have only azw3 file. Could you give me some general ideas how can I apply the same tools that class mobi_split provides (sure only if they are applicable) to simple azw3 editing? I just need to add 501, and modify 202 with content of 201. Added: Found this and understood that solution is not that easy nut to crack... Last edited by EbokJunkie; 04-07-2014 at 04:10 AM. |
