calibre converting comic pages out of order

DiscoDev · 08-03-2015, 11:34 PM

Hello,

I recently converted a few comic books from the .cbr format to the .epub format. I am finding that scenes in the comic that take up two pages do not show up in the correct page order. They are all showing up at the end of the book. Single page scenes are ordered correctly. I have been converting comics for a while using calibre, and this has never happened to me before. The books read in the correct order on my PC comic reader (ComicRack), so I thought this must have something to do with calibre during the conversion.

I looked for a solution online. The only solution I found mentioned was to change the numbering of the pages from numerical to alphabetical. I don't see a way to do that in calibre. I don't know if that can even be done within calibre.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Open up the cbr file with winrar, rename the files for the comic pages inside the rar file so that they sort correctly.
