Book order in old and new readers
I have designed an ebook which sorts by author last name on my T1 and T2 after being loaded on to my reader with calibre.
But when it is read on a Sony 505 it sorts by author first name. Has Sony changed the way ebooks are ordered between the earlier readers and the later readers? Is there some way I can get the ebook to sort by author last name on both readers? |

In the "author" metadata field in the OPF file you should specify the author's name as "lastname, firstname". That will display on the reader as "firstname lastname", but sort by lastname.
