En une autre occasion de sauvegarde restauration, j'ai perdu une colonnes importante de ma structure calibre. Il s'agissait d'une colonne de type texte, que j'avais créée et où je mentionnais tous mes avis et commentaires aprè lecture. De fait, 250 commentaires perdus, donc grosse perte
J'aimerais donc savoir si la méthode Import/export permet d'éviter ce genre de désagrèment.
Merci d'avance
Thank you for your answer
You refer me to the Caliber help that I have already consulted. The backup paragraph is a bit short and not particularly clear
The backup by copy / collar of the Caliber directory has already given me some setbacks (See my previous post).
On another backup-restore occasion, I lost an important column from my caliber structure. It was a text type column, which I had created and where I mentioned all my opinions and comments after reading. In fact, 250 comments lost, so big loss
I would therefore like to know if the Import/export method makes it possible to avoid this kind of inconvenience.
Thanks in advance

I don't (and wouldn't) use the export/import feature as a backup/restore tool for the following reasons:
- when I installed calibre in 2012 the export/import feature didn't exist;
- its design objective is to move calibre data between computers rather than backup/restore, see this FAQ;
- it exports entire libraries every time its used, which discourages frequent backups;
- there is no provision for restoring an individual format file, book or author
- when I installed calibre in 2012 I was already using GoodSynch as my data backup/restore tool, I saw no reason not to include the calibre libraries and configuration alongside my images, music, tax returns etc.
Over the past decade I have never had a need to restore an entire library, I have restored a few format files, or an occasional book. And always because of my own mistake.
