mwhybark · 05-26-2013, 04:54 PM

Hi, I am importing some calibre-created epubs and the files come in with the author misidentified as the title and no title or other info assigned. manually editing the metadata and exporting produces files that reimport correctly. the metadata in the exported files appears to be tagged identically to the file that does not import correctly. the files that do not import correctly are identified as calibre-created files.

I have scrubbed google search and this forum for similar problems and find no record of a similar issue.

attempting to use the automatic remote metadata import misidentifies the books as other books by the same author.

Any tips? Thanks in advance.
