MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Translator in Calibre became Author in Kobo

Thanks for the pointer to Sigil. I had a look at the original metadata, as follows:

Creator Sarah Death
Display Sequence 2
File As Death, Sarah
Id Attribute creator2
Role Translator
Scheme marc:relators
Creator Karin Smirnoff
File As Smirnoff, Karin
Id Attribute id
Role Author
Scheme marc:relators

It seems that somehow in the transfer from Calibre to Kobo, the Translator became the Author. Is there anything in this metadata that would explain such behaviour? Or what field(s) I should edit in Sigil, to work around the problem?
