v1.3.0 Released

Changes in this release:
  • Add a "Encode HTML in UTF-8" option strip charset meta tags and re-encode in UTF-8 for books that do not display correctly in calibre viewer
  • Change the UI appearance to look more balanced.

The main change for this release is this new option to prevent another common circumstance requiring an ePub->ePub conversion. A number of ePubs have the HTML delcared with the incorrect encoding in their <meta> tags. You can see the effect of this by characters like  appearing when viewed with the calibre ebook viewer, and/or â appearing instead of quotes etc. These epubs will render correctly in ADE, but not most other places. This new option will strip any existing meta tags, and put a UTF-8 xml declaration at the top of each file, which almost always will be sufficient to resolve the issue for both viewing in calibre/web browsers and/or editing with Sigil.
