Djvu Support

vpredoehl · 02-12-2012, 01:33 AM

When I try to convert my DjVU books to ePub, all I get is the cover. I installed the DjVU plugin available in preferences -> Plugins, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I can't open DjVU files either.

What else can I do to get DjVU books to work with calibre?

calibre only supports text based djvu files, these are typically created by scanner+OCR programs.

ok, thanks for letting me know. BTW, calibre rocks!! Good job!!

I found djvulibre, which has a suite of tools for manipulating DjVU files. Since I have a bunch of them, I would appreciate if someone who knows how to use these can explain how to convert a DjVU into something that will translate to an epub.

Thanks!!

I can convert djvu to xml. Does calibre support xml -> epub? I'm looking, but don't see it.

No you need to convert the djvu to html
