a book which won't convert

Clio · 04-23-2022, 07:49 AM

Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help me please. I am trying to convert some books to KEPUB format, and most of them have worked beautifully. Unfortunately, there is one which won't convert. I've tried several times and I get the error message pasted below.

The file I'm trying to convert is attached.

Does anyone understand why it won't work?

Spoiler:

Your error message is incomplete. I suggest the first thing you do is install the 64bit version of calibre.

Thank you. I see that you are right about the error message. For some reason it doesn't want to let me copy and paste the entire message. I'm not sure why that is. But attached is a screenshot of the last part of the error message, in case that's useful.

I did as you suggested and installed the 64 bit Calibre, but I got the same result with that.

thats a problem in the kepub output plugin. You should post that in that plugins thread.
