Delete Format for Multiple Books
I'm sure it's me, but I can't seem to find the option to delete a format for multiple books at once:



Is it there and I'm just not seeing it, or is it now somewhere else?

Your screen shot is of the dialog from Edit Metadata button. If instead you click the delete button one of the option is to delete books of a specific format.

This is how I always removed formats in the past.

Thanks for the explanation; it makes sense. I was always very careful when deleting formats, for fear I would remove the wrong one.

(And I didn't see that other post before I created a new one )
