Calibre will not convert full book
Hi there, this is my first post on here, so I ask in advance to be patient with me.
Anyway, I have been try to convert epub files on calibre and after hours of finally getting it to convert, it has only converted the first 2 pages, one which is the cover and the other page is the title page. I have been at this for hours now and I'm really stuck as to what I am doing wrong. I have the latest version of calibre 0.8.19. my device is a Kindle 3GS +Wifi and I am running windows 7 OS. The books that I am trying to convert are ones that I managed to get from my Iphone, and all of them are epub files Please help. Thank you |

It is likely that the problem is with the source epub file. Are the epub files DRM free? This is a requirement for Calibre to be able to convert them successfully. As an example any books downloaded from the Apple store are extremely likely to be DRM protected.
One simple chech - does the book show up OK in the Calibre viewer (which is an epub viewer)? It will not if it is DRM protected. |
