Custom dictionary question

Ilabloh · 08-07-2021, 05:13 PM

Hello users.
I would like to ask a few questions about the program calibre. We are creating a book that contains some terms. These terms require explanation, which is written by the author. Please tell me if it is possible to create your own dictionary, which will be supported by the application, with the author's terms?
If so, which dictionary format will be supported? Is it possible to add pictures to the word explanation window? Is it possible to use this dictionary offline?
Thanks in advance, Ilya.

Use popup footnotes in the book itself, they support pictures and arnitrary text formatting.
