It is clear that ebook-convert can be used to convert from any supported format to
Open eBook format, which is a collection of files in a directory, but there is nothing in
the documentation that describes a way to convert
from that collection.
Am I missing something, or does such a facility really not exist?
It seems to me that the OEB directory format is best for manually tweaking the format of books before they continue to their intended destination, as the HTML, stylesheets, images, and manifest files are laid out there ready for editing as desired.
The documentation says that
"These files are the files that would normally have been passed to the output plugin" it is clear that the functionality is already there to make the final transformation, but it seems to be accessible only as the second half of a conversion from one readable format to another.
Can someone please help me with this?
