Please dont't change my book name to Pinyin in the dist

Vidyvideni · 03-23-2024, 08:22 AM

lots of my books are chinese, the book file name will be converted to Pinyin in the dist, then copy it to Kindle, some books are not able to find metadata, so It ends up with a book named with Pinyin, which is not easily recognizable. I swear to the GOD , my computer does work with file name with Chinese also my Kindle.

But others don't (reliably).
Calibre does this to work across multiple OS and devices and I can move my entire Library across to another OS with little issue.

Why are you looking at the file in the calibre library? The template should be giving you the filename you want when you save the eBook to the computer or your Kindle.

Dont copy the file from the library folder to the Kindle, use the Send to Device tools. The author and book subfolders should be regarded as extension of the database.
