Difficulties with Libra 2 and Calibre
Finding typos and errors while reading is a total nightmare because it means that you have to delete the book you're reading. I haven't found any way to fix those without losing all annotations and bookmarks every time i "fix" a book in Calibre. Whether it be colored text issues that makes it impossible to read in dark mode, or conversion from epub to kepub that messes up the paragraph breaks, images, and so on. As far as I understand, this is because every conversion after a fix creates a new version of the book.
Two issues that I have recently discovered that really makes me feel that Calibre is lacking in certain departments:
* Dark mode did not work for my current book. I had to go and make a new conversion with KoboTouch Extended to remove color information. A new version was created. I had no way to transfer my old annotations to the new fixed epub file.
* I discovered that kepub is a much faster and responsive format and now I want this for every book, including the ones I've read. I reread books and reference them due to work. Problem is, I'll lose all my bookmarks and annotations if I convert my whole library of epubs to kepubs.
Can someone please explain to me like I'm five how to navigate around this? Why must new files be created every time I have to change something in the book? I have all the recommended plugins installed but the don't really solve this issue. Or I just don't understand how to do it.
