Hi,

I'm trying to convert some files and the title of the text and the author are already in the file name (title - author). I'd like to keep the full file name after conversion and not add "unknown" as the author.

The way it's set for conversion now, part of many author's names at end of the file name are being cut off by Calibre and I need to be able to search their last names to pull them up. I don't care about any metadata.

Calibre has a lot of settings and I'm not sure where to look?
