But then later they changed the multiple name separator to comma, and so now the "Last, First" format doesn't work properly.
Ah, thanks for this info! I wondered why my authors list was janked up. I guess I need to go through Calibre and update how I'm storing the author names to fix it. Easy enough to do, now that I know.
