since I am just starting to use calibre for reading since highlighting has been implemented. Previously I converted all epubs to pdf and read from the pdf. I am seeing that adding a book makes a duplicate of book being added. one folder has name of book (source), the other name of author.
This is doubling space needed for books, and will add confusion to organization and backup having two copies of books. I already have a system for data backup, and syncing books with other devices. and, moving a book from one calibre library to another may be impossible. Moving book to another device and continuing with highlighting? Getting complicated. is there a way to tell calibre to use original copy of epub, maintain a single copy of books, and be able to move that copy between devices using the same data sync software I currently use?
I guess that I wondering how to manage the calibre system, since it is so different from I am used to.
