Author/Title order in mobi output file

macnab69 · 01-22-2012, 01:51 AM

I can't find anywhere to set the output filename order to Auther - Title, or is Title - Author a mobi spec?

For K4PC, change Preferences -> Save books to disk -> Save template.

For a device, do the same in "Sending books to device" and/or override this default in Preferences -> Advanced -> Plugins -> Device interface plugins -> (Device).

Thanks. Never thought of looking there.

Doesn't work. Is only for "Save to disk", not the output file when converting.

calibre considers the folder where it store ebooks to be private. There aren't any options for changing how it stores the files.

If you need files with names set in a particular way, use send to device or save to disk

Aha! Tested. Works. Thanks
