Hi there guys, if this has been covered previously kindly point me in the right direction, I couldn't find on the forum...
I've got a lot of ebooks spread across my drive named 'mostly' in the format 'Author - Title.pdf', but with no meaningful tag information or covers.
I've posted earlier about an issue with the name to tag conversion but I'm wondering if I'm going about his right. pdf's use the regular expression to guess the tags from filenames, but word doc's don't, they look at the author tag instead. so when I import my collection gets in a mess, and I lose a lot of the info that was in the filename (especially where the filename wasn't 'author - filename' but contained series info.
I was going to use Calibre to create/structure my new main ebook directory (rather than having them all over the place). But I read on here that it's best to keep this as a 'black box' away from the main files.
What have you guys done, and what did you use to consolidate and tag your collections?
Ideally I'd like all to be in the structure; Author/Title/Author - Title.extension
Many Thanks... River.
