I did play about with the save options, but the difficulty is not knowing absolutely that some saved book sometime will not be altered.

I have brought some books into Calibre that were purchased. I want to keep them in their original form, as produced by the publisher. I don’t want Calibre to muck about with books that don’t need mucking about with unless I expressly choose to do that.

Perhaps Calibre is only trying to be helpful, but I don’t expect it by default to silently alter books without obtaining my permission to do so.

NB: I haven’t yet investigated this fully to determine what it is that Calibre is changing.
