Calibre help!
! Hi there,
Anyone use Calibre to convert books with? I'm having a hell of a time converting something relatively simple: It's basically just a series of pictures in Jpeg formate (a childrens book).. I converted the images into a 16 page .pdf and then ran it through Calibre. The problem is, after the conversion, the pages are all over the place (split into 2, half above, half below).. all I want it each jpeg to be displayed correctly (one per page).
Anyone have any advice?
Many thanks in advance!

Sort of I'm sure somebody that could help would have seen this thread eventually. Much quicker to just put it in the Calibre forum.

Yes, you did.

PDF is rarely a good format to convert from; review this sticky in the conversion forum.
