Hello,

I'm sorry, I create a second topic but I think isn't related to Calibre but more with Kobo.

I have a problem with a book from Danielle Steel. In my Kobo the author is the translator, not the writer. I tried to edit the metadata from Calibre but nothing was wrong. Danielle Steel is the author on author related fields.

I opened the book in ebook Edit (first time for me) and during my meticulous research, I came across the content.opf file, in which I found some interesting lines :

Code:

    <dc:creator id="creator02">Zoe Powers</dc:creator>
    <dc:creator id="id">Danielle Steel</dc:creator>

First line is the translator displayed in my Kobo as author. Is this the expected behavior? Second question, can I delete this line and save the content.opf file to have the correct author on my Kobo?

Thank you
