Don't divide so many folders!

[maimai]

Excuse me, if there is only one folder when the book is imported, it will be fine!
Don't divide so many folders! There are several episodes and each has a folder.


Picture 1 is originally imported into calibre, and picture 2 is the book folder I compiled.

I know that I can directly click "Save a single directory on the hard drive", but won't the books I import be organized as folders? Doesn't it take up hard disk space to save the two sides?

READ the FAQ about changing Calibres folder structure.

Simple solution to what you are seeing: Don't peek beneath the skirts.
There is almost no need to ever do that. Calibre is your Librarian and will DELIVER to you device or viewer

Can I use calibre to change the name of the book to Chinese? It is not pinyin, will it be supported in the future?

The GUI controls what happens under the skirts. AFAIK it will do what is needed to keep the Library structure compatible with ALL the OS (allows you to switch OS, with care, and still use your Library).

Does it really mater what the folder is named IF Calibre manages the Library? NO!
Select a book from the GUI, and the Librarian delivers it (with updated metadata) to the destination selected (Device, Export Folder).

As to title naming, why not make a test book entry, and send it to your device and see what you get?

The library folder and file names cannot be changed, for the reasons already stated. See this sticky thread (and the embedded links) ==>> Want to change folder structure or file names in the Calibre library?

If you use the Save to Disk tool the file names are defined by a template you define in Preferences->Save to Disk, make sure the Convert non-English characters to English equivalents setting is unchecked



The Send to Device feature is similar, IIRC different devices can have different templates.
