PDF error

Jaye · 01-24-2010, 05:35 PM

Greetings all..

I've had this little issue with Calibre. When converting a certain PDF it gets stuck on 47 percent! It will sit there for hours never progressing. I restarted everything, with no change. I figured that if it was DRM issue it would have told me.

Any advice guys?

Use the free Mobipocket Creator to convert the pdf to html and have a closer look at the structure. Or after Mobipocket Creator has it as a html file click build-a-book and it will create a PRC file. The prc file should be of use to you and your kindle.

Of course once it is a prc file you can enter that file in Calibre.
