Hi everyone.
Is there a way to remove the font size from Comments in Modify Metadata, at once and throughout the library as shown in the accompanying images?
Thanks and bye,
Gianni

Select all books, right-click Edit Metadata -> Edit Metadata in Bulk -> Search and Replace. Search field: comments, search for: font-size: small, replace with: leave it blank, destination field: comments, mode: replace field.

This should do what you want.

Edit: try it with a couple of books first, just in case.

Hello Sirtel,
thanks for your answer!
I use last version of Calibre and I'm sorry but I'm absolutely not able to find: "destination field: comments, mode: replace field"

I add arguments for the solution of dunhill, here is a visual example of the "Comments Cleaner" plugin:

I use the latest version (5.9 64bit) of Calibre but there are no fields indicated by you !!!
Maybe I need to install some particular app to make them appear or do you use another type of Calibre?

The screen changes depending (context) on various ON FORM selection (many are on right).

Hello theducks,
thanks for your answer, but my english is bad so for me it is too cryptic, I mean: what should I do for the two fields (destination field and mode) to appear?
Thanks.

Thanks to all, but this sytem don't work at all, maybe because the " font-size: smal" that I want to cancel is in the comments HTML source and not in the normal view?

It works (I just tested this S&R ). The field IS comments. What you see is a VIEW

I'm really sorry for this problem….
it may be that the field "load search/replace" it is necessary, but on mine Calibre is not accessible, maybe I need to activate some function?
In any case thanks again for the help.

Your screen shot shows the end of the comment in the test text field. As it ends in "</font>", there should be a matching font tag with the attributes. You should be able to put the cursor in one of these fields and move through it to find the tag.

Try the search and replace that @Sirtel suggested on a couple of books and see what it does.
