@DaltonST:

You were completely right! Now it works!

Crucial for my success was your explanation about filenames:
Quote:
It matches by finding a Calibre book Path with a book filename that is identical to the Zotero file attachment filename. It ignores everything in the Paths except the final filename.
After that I could solve my problem by dropping the Calibrefiles into Zotero, so that the filenames matches exactly. But changing the filenames manually from Calibre to Zotero is a tedious task. Maybe I still did not understand how to apply your plugin?

I am relatively new to Calibre, meaning that almost all my pdf-files are still inside Zotero. How can I get them to Calibre so that I can them convert and read as ebooks? What would be the preferred procedure of action steps?


BTW: Your link under [1] in Special Operating System Notes is missing an "e" (www.mobilread.com instead www.mobileread.com). As I had problem with installing calibredb I would suggest you refer not only to the general website but to a thread with more explanation (e.g. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=264945, especially post #6)

And for your patience with a Newbie like me.
