Font sizes for news downloads
Hello,
I'm new with calibre, like this application well and I'm using it mainly for downloading news. And here I have got a little problem: When I download the any news source and transfer it to my eReader by clicking on "send to device" I always get tiny font sizes like here: My device is the Onyx Boox M92 with a screen size of 9.7". Of course I can increase the font sizes with my reader, but then I get very big titles. I there any possibility to increase the smaller font size without icreasing the title sizes? I have already read this help, but it doesn't work ![]() For testing purposes I adjusted calibre in that way: I expected that every font size would become equal but nothing has changed when I downloaded the news again and transferred it to my device. Everything remains like before. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Thank You! |

If you want to pass conversion options to the recipe download system, use the conversion_options parameter in the recipe, setting global conversion options will not apply to news downloads. In your case you need
conversion_options = {'font_size_mapping': whatever} You can get the values by running a conversion in the GUI with the values you want and looking at the conversion log. |

Thank You kovidgoyal!
I've never heard about recipes before, but in the last days I read a lot about them. I see it's very complicated to read news with an e-Book Reader yet. :/ I can now change my font size with: conversion_options = {'base_font_size' : ##} Your suggestion don't have any effect ![]() conversion_options = {'font_size_mapping': ##} But I'm not able to change different sizes individualy like: Font size key : 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 If I increase all font sizes in the same manner I get monstrous headlines. Thanks! |
