Calbre is driving me crazy at the moment, but maybe I'm expecting it to be able too much.
Here's my problem, in Calibre I have all my books sorte by [lastname, first name] and they are sorted that way too, so both field are the way I want them. Now I discovered that in the content.opf there is also mention of the author and in there it still is set to [firstname lastname]. ANd thus are they imported incorrectly on my reading device and showing up sorted by first name while I so much prefer last name.
I have tried using the Modify EPUB plugin to replace metadata but that didn't work.
Is there ANY way where I can update the content.opf of a file and put the author name in it as [last name, first name]?
