Calibre conversion probs - Page 2

FYI, I've noticed highlighting in RTF will cause this error. Underlining, bold, italic do not.

FWIW, I have reverted to 0.6.35 because 0.6.37 has errors converting PDB files (that it had previously converted happily). It also generated errors when building a catalog if my library contained PDF files with punctuation characters in the file name.

Version 0.6.35 works perfectly (re-converted 700 book yesterday).

Hmmm... thanks for this ChristopherTD, I will see if this solves my PDB conversion issue. Unlike you, I only have one file as detailed here.

Any issues I need to be aware of while downgrading to 0.6.35 from 0.6.37?

Cheers

OK, I downgraded to V 0.6.35 and my PDB book converted successfully. So looks like something changed in the conversion process in the latest version.

Kovid, GRiker or user_none, can you pls look into this? I have given the details of the problem here

I am having this same problem. I recently upgraded to v0.6.37 and am not sure how to downgrade back to v0.6.35. Will someone please let me know how to downgrade?

Done. Ticket ID 4833

Downgrading on the Mac was easy as I still had the disk image from 0.6.35 in my Downloads folder, and all I had to do was open that and drag Calibre into the Applications folder. Job done.

Not sure how it would work on Windows, but I guess you just run the 0.6.35 install and tell it to overwrite things if it complains that they are newer.
