Teeg · 09-16-2021, 09:30 AM

I have several items in calibre that I've downloaded from Scribd's documents. Documents from Scribd download with the name like so - 12345678-A-Study-In-Scarlet. First, there's a series of numbers, then a dash between all the letters in the name. I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for an easy way to fix this, either in the process of downloading (I've tried changing the name in the download, it doesn't change the name in Calibre), or as a mass "Edit Metadata" change, or a plugin. Even just a solution for removing the dashes would help.
