Hi, I'm trying to convert the dictionary that I've downloaded from the 1st post to stardict format. All of the file that are listed on the index are kobo dictionary format right?
I try to convert them using the latest Penelope using the following syntax.

Code:

python3 -m penelope -i dicthtml.zip -j kobo -f en -t en -p stardict -o en-en

It is successful and I got a ZIP file containing 3 stardicts file. But the size are to small (the original kobo file were 50mb and the output stardict zip are 12mb).
When I try to use the stardict file using GoldenDict apps I got nothing. When I type a word it doesn't have any definition. Just blank page.
Is there anything that I need to do to fix this?
Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!
