Why the name calibre?
Take your pick:- Converter And LIBRary for E-books
- A high calibre product
- A tribute to the SONY Librie which was the first e-ink based e-book reader
- My wife chose it ;-)
calibre is pronounced as cal-i-ber not ca-li-bre. If you’re wondering, calibre is the British/commonwealth spelling for caliber. Being Indian, that’s the natural spelling for me.

I use a singular 'they' when I'm not sure of someone's preferred pronouns.
