Advice needed on parameters for cleaning up new files during epub to epub or azw/mobi
Hi,
I’ve been using calibre for many years now to clean up books and send them to my kobo ereader. I’ve always had some settings added for when I convert my books to epub after setting the metadata and cover as I want them to be.
Even when the original is an epub file I would still convert it to epub again to change things like: remove colored lettering, no locked proprietary fonts, no extra line spaces, and some other things so I can change all aspects of font and spacing etcetera of the book in my kobo.
The problem is that somewhere in the past years these settings were lost without me knowing it and it’s been so long ago I created these settings I don’t know which I used and how I put them in. Recently I noticed books with hard to read chapter names (colors) and sentences being cut off at the end of the line (some words or parts of words not on the screen).
I don’t remember what settings exactly I had under epub conversion. What are your standard conversion parameters? I think I had more settings changed than I can remember now for this post. I’d like to hear your take on it, not only how to fix for the problems listed above. Also, I wouldn’t want to break everything in the book. For instance, I’d like to have chapter names bigger than the rest of the text if the author wanted it that way.
