for "save to disc" that is true, and for "modify epub" , with the relevant box ticked. I just tested both of those
but the bug/ feature? I seem to have found is this- using content server:
if a book with NO calibre tags is delivered via the calibre content server, then any original tags in dc subject fields in the opf of that book are left intact. Only happens for NO calibre tags, if one or more calibre tags is present then those original tags are removed when the book is sent.
this may need more testing, I'd be grateful if someone else could try to reproduce it, but there is no other explanation for how some original tags are surviving the transfer to tablet process. I am moving books via the content server to calibre companion & them importing into Mantano reader app, which is showing the origian tags in the case explained above.
