Hello, and ?help?

apdamien · 01-21-2023, 02:15 PM

I've been using Calibre for a couple of years to create EPUB and MOBI versions of my stories.

I'm hoping to semi-automate the generation of different formats (HTML, MOBI, PDF, plain text) from my Word originals. I note the existence of EBook add-on for openoffice. I wonder if there's something similar that works with LibreOffice. And if so, can it be accessed from the command line?

More generally, I'm looking for something that I can run on the command line to convert stories to an EBook. That way I can run it from a Makefile and/or the story manager I'm writing in PHP.

Please direct me to the right forum if there's anything that will do this.

Hello and welcome to MobileRead!

I think the Workshop subforum is the place to ask this kind of question.
