Search & Replace CSS file
Search and Replace seems to work only on HTML files. Can it be made to work on the CSS file? eg stylesheet.css
Many thanks
Michael

You want Sigil (a book EDITOR).
Calibre is a library manager and conversion tool

Hi theducks
Thanks for thought will have a look at Sigil.
Pity as with calibre on convert it will > unpack > do search and replace on all the HTML files > then repack.
Don't know if Sigil can do the same on the CSS files?
Thanks
Michael

Sigil works on, and leaves it as a Valid EPUB (unless you mess it up )
Tweway EPUB (the T key) will un pack and repack. You use your favorite tools to edit, the press the rebuild button... dONE

Hi theducks
Thanks for further comments that Sigil can do it.
I use W7 and could not find any reference to Tweway. Could you please expand the instructions?
Thanks Michael

theducks was referring to the Tweak epub feature which is now called the tweak books feature. If you right click on a book in calibre you will see the Tweak book option. Personally I use the "Open with" plugin to right click on a book and open the epub directly in Sigil for editing.

Also keep in mind that you may be able to accomplish what you want with the "Extra CSS" and the "Filter CSS" tabs found in the "Look and Feel" section of the Convert dialog. Maybe not quite as straight-forward as S&R, but certainly possible for fairly simple changes.

Hi DiapDealer
Thanks for the tip to use Look & Feel. However I can't get it to work! Can you tell me what I am doing wrong please?
Wish to change "font-size: 1em;" to "font-size: 1.1em;" in stylesheet.css.
Open up convert epub to epub in calibre > Look & Feel > tried in "Filter style information"
Tried ticking remove font-size: 1em; and put in extra CSS font-size: 1.1em; remains unchanged
Tried ticking remove fonts only but font-size: 1em; remains unchanged.
Tried putting font-size: 1em; in "other CSS properties and in remains as is.
Can you show me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks
Michael
