Hi friends. Calibre for reasons unknown, resinstalled itself yesterday, as if it were never used before. (home Windows 10 machine). I managed to recover from the loss of the Library by finding and restoring it. Now equally concerning to me, does anyone know how to recover the lost configurations in Calibre. Signficant example: it took years of learning, but I finally got a means to convert .epub and a few other formats to .pdfs that look like book chapters, rather than mobile device text, which tends to be large fonts and without margins, etc. This is what 'conversion' is for, right? To make it printable and useful as material for class, or otherwise readable without a device. Now, all Calibre settings for fonts, ways of handling page breaks, line breaks text, covers, spaces, etc are lost and returned to Calibre's default. Long question made short: Does anybody here know what file or files contains those configurations/ settings, and how I might restore it?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
