New calibre user about to input a large library of PDFs. My PDFs are arranged in a folder structure organized by topic. The best place to store this information in calibre would be in the tags. I don't see any way to access the file path on import. I'm guessing one way to do it would be to import one folder at a time and set the "Tags to apply when adding a book" appropriately for each folder in the Preferences→Adding books dialog. While this won't be too difficult, does anyone know of another way to do this programmatically?

Regards,
