Hello everybody.
I'm very pleased to join your community.
I have Calibre installed on my PC (Windows 10) managing a library of 900 articles , books or magazines, all "pdf" files, with a set of parameters. It works perfectly well.
I bought recently a Galaxy Tab S2 tablet, in order to have this library with me during my travels. I have installed on this tablet Calibre Companion, since I Though I would be able to duplicate this PC library onto the tablet.
Unfortunately, I can't manage to do it. The best I can achieved is a duplication of files, but the "renaming" and metadata associated are not copied.
Thus, I find all of my files, but 80% of them are displayed with a wrong title and author (always the same title and the same author)

Could you help me achieve my goal ?

Thank you very much for your help.
Thierry.
