I'm having a problem with calibre-created epubs in Stanza. The first screen of each xhtml file in the epub shows up, but the rest of the file is empty. If you continue to page past all the empty pages, once you come to the content of the next xhtml file you again get the first screen, and then blank pages.

After some experimentation, I've narrowed it down to one line in the css file. If I comment out "position: relative;" from the ".s" block all pages show up correctly.

Using b15, and I think this was also a problem in 0.5.14.

The help text for ebook-convert didn't help me to figure out how to use it instead of feeds2disk. Is there a simple example somewhere?

Sorry if I'm just being dense. I tried specifying a recipe file as the input and a dummy output and asking form help, but it didn't seem to work.

I previously used feeds2disk to test and create recipes.
ebook-convert doesn't like a .py file for input.
How do I send it a script/recipe?

thanks!

Use <recipe>.recipe instead of .py:

ebook-convert YourRecipe.recipe YourResult.outputformat

Thanks GRiker. Adding -h even gives help.
e.g.
ebook-convert YourRecipe.recipe YourResult.outputformat -h

I'm not even going to need to open a ticket anymore.
Seems that the bug for not being able to edit the metadata on some files was solved with 0.6.0b16.

P.S. It's still happening with Beta 6...15.

It happens, for example, with the PRC file Cloud of Witness.

Here is the error, just in case:

Sayers_Clouds of Witness.prc
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/ebooks/metadata/worker.pyo", line 38, in read_metadata_

ImportError: cannot import name ast
Improvement:-)

In Beta 16, here is no error message, but all the metadata is gone from the above file, when imported into Calibre.

As far as I can tell, there is no metadata in that file (i.e. it has no EXTH section)

@Abisha: What document is this with? It looks like it is an EPUB file that misidentifies one of its component files.

Quick bug report:
When I reconnect my reader after unplugging it from the PC with Calibre loaded, Calibre failes to communicate with it. I need to shut down Calibre and try again. I can reproduce this pretty consistently. (Windows 7, Calibre beta.)

I don't expect you to support an unreleased OS, but maybe if someone on Vista has the same problem it can be looked into (FWIW, the official versions of Calibre work perfectly on Windows 7).

Whenever I open an Fb2 file (or convert it to epub) with calibre Ebook Viewer there's always the TOC at the beginning of the file. How do I turn that off?
