Remove original files after conversion

j_doe_999 · 12-02-2010, 07:45 PM

Hi,

Because I have a Nook, I convert all the books I have in Epub format. Now, in my Calibre library, I have both the Epub files and the original files (txt, rtf, pdb....). Is there an easy way to remove from the library the original files and keep only the Epub files ?

Thank you,

Select the book entries where you've converted and have the multiple formats
then click on the small arrow next to the remove books icon,

select 'remove all formats except' and the select epub and o.k.
Or
select 'remove specific format' and select txt/rtf/pdb and o.k
