Get Metadata from TXT File When Importing
Hello all,
I've downloaded a few stories in .txt format, and they have the metadata embedded within the text file. The beginning of the files are all similar, as below: [Title] [Author] Genre: [text] Language: [text] Published: [text] Updated: [text] Rating: [text] Chapters: [text] Words: [text] Is there a way to have calibre recognize these fields and add them to the metadata when importing? I've tried selecting the checkbox "Preferences>Adding books>Read metadata from file contents rather than file name" to no avail. I'll attach a sample file if that's helpful, too. Any help would be appreciated! |

No, there isnt. calibre knows nothing about adhoc metadata formats in txt files.
