Using a plugin

jrmckins · 12-12-2010, 12:25 PM

Sorry for the total n))b question but I can't figure this out. I have a plugin installed and I want to use it on an .epub book. How do I "execute" a plugin against a book?

Welcome to MobileRead, jrmckins

If your plugin is installed, you don't 'execute it'.

When you import a book, it will automatically convert it for you.

Most 3rd party plugins are "file type" and will automatically run when you import an ebook of the types identified in the plugin. To see what plugins you have installed, go to Preferences -> Plugins and click on the "+" before File type plugins.

If you already have an ePub in your library, I think you need to import it again to get the plugin's effect.

AH! I deleted my "test" book and re-added it and it worked as expected. Thanks.
