Reading metadata on Sony Reader
I tried searching for this but was unsuccessful. I have a lot of fanfiction loaded onto my 505 through Calibre. Under the metadata, is an info section where I put the story synopsis, which I can read when the book is highlighted in the Calibre library.
My question is, is it possible to read this blurb on the Sony and if so, how do I make sure that it is on the Sony? |

Another way might be to create the catalog. The blurb is included on the individual book pages. Works for me.

Sorry, it took so long to get back to this but RL got in the way.
Dwanthny: I forgot to mention that the files are RTF and therefore, aren't converted in anyway, so will changing the preferences work? banjomike: What do you mean by creating a catalog? And which individual book pages do you mean? |

Each book in your Calibre library gets its own page in the catalog which will look a bit like the jpg attached. You don't get ALL the metadata. No ISBN, ratings, tags, collections, or file formats. Mainly the summary and cover art. Last edited by banjomike; 08-01-2010 at 06:45 AM. |
