Hello MobileRead community!

I've been using Calibre to manage my arabic e-book library, and I've noticed that sometimes the metadata for titles. or authors with this transliterated kind of writing like "Muḥammad ʿAwwāmah" and publisher like that "Dār al-Yusr lil-nashr"


I understand that Calibre pulls this information from various sources like Google Books or Goodreads. However, I've tried using Python with libraries like googletrans to automatically translate or convert these foreign language titles and author names into a more familiar script, particularly Arabic. Unfortunately, the results from Google Translate haven't been as accurate as I'd hoped.

Has anyone else faced a similar situation or found a clever workaround? I'm curious if there's a more streamlined or integrated solution within Calibre itself or if there are alternative tools or methods that have worked better for you.

Any tips, tricks, or advice would be greatly appreciated!



my challenge is to turn "Muḥammad ʿAwwāmah" to "محمد عوامة"


Dār al-Yusr lil-nashr" to "دار اليسر للنشر"


Thanks in advance for your help!"
