Drag book into calibre's GUI, right click on it, choose convert.

I have been reading a lot since the issue started and to say the least - I am now totally confused.

I downloaded and installed;

Python 2.6, pycrypto for Python 2.6, ineptkey_v43.pyw and ineptpdf74.pyw.


Using Python 2.6 I created the adeptkey.der

I then ran ineptpdf74.pyw and filled in the 3 boxes. I then received the following error message " Unexpected EOF "

What Did I Do Wrong???

Hi,
You have probably already solved the problem but for all the other people who will consult google after you, here's what you do.

Fist drag the epub into the list of the Calibre standard interface.
Then right click on the book you want to convert and select convert individually
In the following screen with all the output options, on the top right hand corner of the window there's a small pull-down list of output options which you need to set to PDF (you'd think they'd make such a fundamental option a bit easier to spot wouldn't you?)
Hope that helps

This thread is about a year old. Please don't resurrect old threads, but rather create new ones- calibre development moves quickly, so information becomes outdated fast.
Also, the details in the fourth post indicate that this is about removing DRM protection from a file. Discussing that is not allowed as per forum rules.

To convert ePub to PDF, you can use Documenter Converter which I will introduce here.

Best regards;
