If you want to have a library of .torrent files and associated downloads (MP4s, CBZs etc) you don't really need a plugin, calibre can store almost any file type. Drag-Drop the .torrent file into the book list, that will create a new book line at the top of the list (I would then edit the Title and Author cells to something sensible). Then drag-drop the corresponding downloaded file into the new book's Details panel (on the right). Added: almost all optional plugins were written by someone who wanted that particular functionality for their own use. BR Last edited by BetterRed; 10-31-2018 at 06:55 PM. |

epub-fix
Hi,
I'm not even sure if I'm in the right section, but I have a number of epubs I would like to fix. I don't have the technical experience to do it manually, and I would just like a plugin that can address the most common problems and attempt to fix them. There used to be a website but it's gone. I see that Kovid has made something called epub-fix, but I'm at a loss as to how to add it to Calibre or anything like that. The page for it is here: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/...pub-fix.1.html |

You will see a list of issues. Red needs serious attention. Yellow is a warning. clickin on an error, list options on the right: Correct all (possible to do automatic) is one of the choices. Not all can be auto-fixed. Each error also describes what was wrong. Some are easy to find. Others take a expert (and NO Publisher should be selling ones that bad) |

Ace, by Daisy
Hi, everybody.
Ace, the Accessibility Checker for EPUB, is a tool developed by the DAISY Consortium to assist with the evaluation of accessibility features of EPUB publications. It helps content creators to meet the accessibility criteria (epub/WCAG). @Doitsu created a plugin wrapper for ACE on Sigil but, sadly, has no plans to build a Calibre version. It would be very nice if someone could build a plugin for the Calibre Editor. ACE is very similar to EpubCheck, in the way that it points out the lines where the problem was found. Ace website: https://daisy.github.io/ace/ Doitsu's plugin for Sigil: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh....php?p=3769716 |

I need to say i would love to have a calibre pluguin that could compress Pdfs, and if possible other formats as well. I have a lot of books and want to make the size smaller, one by one would be nice, but in batch would be crazy amazing! I downloaded and tested a lot of specific apps to compress Pdfs some are good, but for the most part they are not. It would be nice one that could control the size of the images embeddeds, text and all, or maybe automatticaly ajusting in the best way possible... I know this would be a bit complex but i would love so much! If you know a good software for compression, Please enlightme, I would be very grateful! I still need to test if the sincronization between Calibre Pc an Kindle paperwhite realy works...for the new Kindle paperwithe version, because I'm having a really hard time to accomplish this. A simple app that could organize folder into collections...like: History/Learning/Self help/Painting and so on...it would be the best thing ever I have a Kindle Paperwithe with 5.9.7 firmware, and I know that there is no jailbreak for this version yet...thanks to some good folks on this lovely forum! So I'm feeling I'm out of luck... and does'nt know what to do anymore...because I do not want to just throw the books in there and make collections in the Kindle without the possibility to easily sincronize my Pc with the kindle... I also do not want the amazon's collections restricted option anymore...so I'm running out of options here lol I would love your thoughts on this subjects; thanks in advance |

Plugins can run command line tools. Were any of the tools that you tested also available as command line tools? If so, which one generated the best result?

That list represents an amazing amount of work by solution providers. I was going to quote it, but I think it would start meaning about a couple of posts per page if I and everybody else did it. So, my thanks to you all.
IF I had a Christmas Wish, it would be for there to be a plugin to document various Calibre settings in a way that would allow all or part of those settings to transfer from one library to another. For example, I have an incoming library where I process any new books, before parceling them out to my various sub-libraries. One of the things is that I have several people, all with different things they want to search for ... ie. authors, tags, comments-contents, etc. The latter is no issue, but the first two actually require that author or tag to be IN the library before I can add them to their personalized searches. So, if my mother wants to add Janet Evanovich to her search list, I have to HAVE Janet Evanovich in the current library for her to be added to Mom's search. I have to fake in an Evanovich entry, add her as an interested author for Mom, and then remove the ersatz book. I'm constantly being asked to watch for so-and-so's book that was talked about on some show or another. Problem is, I have no way of watching for an author, other than to resort to the ersatz solution, even if the person who is asking is ME! Documentation would help me see where I might be MISSING somebody's request. And being able to add from either previous documentation of even a text file, would certainly help me maintain my place as the family librarian. Again, thanks to all for all that they do. |

Hi Doitsu! Sorry for the late answer, I'm still searching and testing for a good app. But I already can tell you about some i really liked, the first one was an export option in the free LibreOffice app, in this function you can control a lot of options in the output file. But this one it is doing one by one, i dont know if it is possible to do in batch like i would love. Others do no accepted a pdf to heavy, some that seemed to work it needs to pay of course. Even in the Adobe Acrobat now needs to pay for the pluguin. The most part of the apps i found were doing the compression altomatically, I still need to check again every app i download to test , but the one i found that could be done by command was Debenu Quick PDF Library , but a noob like me on functions like this it takes a while for me to understand... Images showing how it work on this apps. By command and automatically: down to up order https://imgur.com/a/vGSIy30 I dont know if this images could help in some way I think one of the problems i found is when you put automatically a low value in a scanned file, the text gets hard to read.. I will probably post more details afer i check very well all of them Any thought just let me know |

Is it possible to integrate a function I use on a step in Photoshop that could optmize the scanned page, image or text within the ebook?
I was thinking about this when i was trying to low down the pdf size of a scanned file, and if i were to do by hand i would need to take page by page of a book, open in Ps select 'best from reduction' option and aply other methodes like sharpen and smoothing to optimize the page with image an text to a certain level that it would not appear so pretty looking, even if the text get just a little bit harder to read, but it would lower the file on a extent that free space for me to put more files in the Kindle. And this probably would opotimize the reading performance as well... I know...this sound too much work... where i could just throw the books i would read in the week there and let this like this. But when I image the possibility to automatize this steps i would have to do forever...i get pretty excited xD |

Anything is possible, but it might be easier to write that as an external tool.
I'd start by bursting the pages into images and then scripts in photoshop to automate the processing. |

Is there a Send to Kindle plugin?
I have used Calibre for many years and one of the most useful plugins for me would be a means to Send to Kindle. This would save a lot of time hunting thru the calibre library.
