Calibre 0.7.21, conversion issues.
Not fully verified: When converting an (English) HTML (Zip) ebook to EPUB, it appears that the fancy typographical symbols like
… “ ” ’ aren't making the conversion; they just vanish. I looked at some previously converted ebooks, and they appear to have been converted at the time. I've left all conversion settings at defaults. Consistent (and worked with 0.7.20): Select more than one TXT or HTML (Zip) ebooks, attempt to convert to EPUB. Every single one throws up its own message box error. ERROR: Conversion Error: <b>Failed</b>: Convert book 1 of 2 (eidolons) Here's an example from a pair of TXT ebooks I just dragged and dropped, then tried to convert, just to keep things simple: Code:
Convert book 1 of 2 (eidolons) Python function terminated unexpectedly (2, 'No such file or directory') (Error Code: 1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "site.py", line 103, in main File "site.py", line 85, in run_entry_point File "site-packages\calibre\utils\ipc\worker.py", line 107, in main File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\convert\gui_conversion.py", line 24, in gui_convert File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 791, in run File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 743, in setup_options File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 712, in read_user_metadata IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'c:\\users\\phall\\appdata\\local\\temp\\calibre_0.7.21_tmp_hzhk7s\\cover.jpg' Code:

There is a bug in 0.7.21 that broke bulk conversion of books without covers. Add a cover and the bulk conversion will work.
As for missing apostrophes, see http://calibre-ebook.com/user_manual...r-smart-quotes |
