Problem with Calibre
Hi,
I got a problem with my Nook STR, last time when I used the old version of Calibre to convert .prc to .epub, I use extra css : @font-face { font-family: "DroidFont", serif, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; src: url(res:///system/fonts/DroidSerif-Regular.ttf); } @font-face { font-family: "DroidFont", serif, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; src: url(res:///system/fonts/DroidSerif-Bold.ttf); } @font-face { font-family: "DroidFont", serif, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: italic; src: url(res:///system/fonts/DroidSerif-Italic.ttf); } @font-face { font-family: "DroidFont", serif, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; src: url(res:///system/fonts/DroidSerif-BoldItalic.ttf); } body { margin-right: 8pt; font-family: 'DroidFont', serif; } And I can read Vietnamese on my Nook, but now when I upgrade Calibre to 0.8.36, I do the same input some CSS - but I can not read Vietnamese on my Nook, the font is error it has some strange character likes : ? ... Anyone can help me? My Nook still can read the old eBooks that I converted last time in Vietnamese. So my Nook is no problem (I guess), all the problem is the conversion in Calibre. Thanks in advance |

Best and easiest thing to do is revert back to previous version. I have the last five or six versions stored in my downloads folder in case I have problems. I don't do the css stuff like you do, not experienced enough. Just convert books to epub for my Kobo wifi.
Quite several versions ago was quite suitable for my needs. I don't need all the advanced features. The program as it stands is excellent and I think Kovid is an absolute genius. Last edited by Wordsworth; 01-21-2012 at 05:32 AM. Reason: afterthought |

Yeah, sometimes the upgrades has cons along with the improved features. If a version is working for me, I stick with it for a bit.

Not that it helps with your issue, but yes, sometimes things break. The last version I was getting some epub decoding errors and the only way to fix them were to convert epub->epub and it worked, not that it was something I wanted to do. The latest version fixed the issue (one of the bugs they were fixing).
Only time I have had anything break from an update though. |
