Hi Notimp,

For me it looks like a problem at Dropbox side. After I've downloaded your file and placed it into Dropbox folder, it has been immediately renamed. Now I've got 2 files here: file with original name ( but zero size), and a new one with name "[name looks exactly like original but I'm not sure](Unicode Encoding Conflict).epub"

They explained this behaviour here

The file seems to download fine, but then on the device turns out to be a 8kb file with a dropbox api error encoded into it (= error at dropbox' end?) and not the initial epub - if I replace the umlauts (here are some you could test against - φόδΦάΔί ) with spaces, it downloads (/syncs) fine.

I'm on a PW3, and the extension works fine for me, btw.

edit: And just as a small aside, if you are using Linux and looking at my script - the calibre command line commands should be global on Linux - if you delete the /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/console.app/Contents/MacOS/ parts in the code above, the lines should start working for you - at least thats what Kovid states in the Calibre documentation.
