Older version 0.5.6?

thibaulthalpern · 04-18-2009, 03:04 PM

Is there a way to download the older version, 0.5.6. The newest version is hanging on some PDFs and can't send them to my Sony PRS-700.

you can send the pdfs using Save to disk instead

EDIT: No you can't my mistake. I don't keep older version around, but maybe some here does.

I found a work around by turning off the PDF metadata writer. That plugin is quite buggy, unfortunately

Hehe, I do.

I did miss some releases here and there. Kovid seems to update very quickly.

Here are the ones I have for posterity. Not all have been uploaded yet, but I've already queued what I have on FileZilla so the files should show up sooner or later.

Thanks, ilovejedd! I seem to have found a work around by turning off the PDF metadata plugin. But, if I find that that doesn't work, I'll use your link to get an older version of Calibre.

I might be one of the few on this forum whose library mostly consist of PDFs as opposed to other formats. I find PDF to be a lot more robust and cross-platform cross-device compatible.
