Calibre Unicode Problem?

CalvaryZ · 03-17-2016, 11:25 AM

Greetings,
I have been attempting to convert an azw3 to an epub using alfcrypto's DeDRM for personal use. The book is called "From Exegesis to Exposition, A Practical Guide to Using Biblical Hebrew." Unfortunately, when I attempt to import the azw3 into Calibre, those words typed in Hebrew, for example "הלך", will once in Calibre read "7L,777". How do I overcome this issue? I would like to simply read the book on my Surface 2 RT through Nook, as Amazon Kindle's app does not support the book on my device (despite having purchased it through Amazon).
Any help is much appreciated. As you can likely tell, I do not know html.
Thank you.

That is a Topaz book, not an azw3 book, calibre cannot convert it at all. The conversion you see is from the dedrm plugin, you will need to ask in the support forum for that plugin.
