Hi Can Anyone help I have several books (150+) I need to add the properties to.
Such as Title, Author and series.

I am using a mac computer.

I know I can do it through Calibre (brilliant piece of software) but I was hoping to do it individually without having to open each file up in textedit or some such software. What I was really hoping for was some little app that just reads and allows editing of this data in a similar way that you can view the file info on a mac.

I'm not even sure if the info is called properties so can not trawl the web for help.

So can anyone help in any way
or have got to carry on doing it the hard way.

Before you say I am now doing it as I format them to .rtf files. So it is just the ones I forgot to do.

Please help.

Izzy
