If for some reason you cant move the folders into an outer folder, then copy the folders to an outer folder, or if you're short of disk space create folder links in the outer folder.

Ahem.



OK, so, this is one of those "oh, I am so stupid I don't want to admit it" moments. I kept trying to select multiple individual folders, inside my archive folder. For some reason, I just didn't think to go up a level. (I know--please don't say it.)

Some of our folders do have the occasional odd thing in them, for one reason or another, so I went through the various options and told the upload to ignore pretty much anything except the 4 "formats" that we make (we provide ePDF's and POD PDF's on occasion, so I'm including them for archival purposes, and we have made the odd LRF for clients on the African continent).

So, thanks, everyone, for making me see the obvious. I'm going to go back and shut up now. I just don't know what it is about me and Calibre; the stuff that seems obvious to everyone else isn't to me. I simply think slightly askew, I suppose, or am too OCD.

Thank you...I'm leaving now and going back to my formatting comfort zone.
