I would like the ability to store multiple PDFs in same book
Many of the books I store are actually either print and play games, or adventures for role playing games. These often come in several PDF files. Sometimes these can be combined into one PDF before adding to Calibre, but sometimes this is not an option.
For example I just downloaded the book One Page Dungeon Compendium 2017 and it has two PDFs. One is an optimized PDF for reading electronically and the other is a 300dpi version just for printing. I would like to store both of these under the same book but I cannot do that without changing the file extension of one of them. I didn't see a forum just for feature requests. If there is some other way to make a request like this please let me know. |

Hmm, I was just thinking whether this feature existed or if there was some way to achieve it.
I mainly use either my Kobo Aura One or my Onyx Boox Max Carta, I send the original PDF file as is to the latter. While I've been playing with k2pdfopt before sending to the former. But, wonder how best to manage both formats inside of Calibre. The Dreamer |

you can merge most pdf's easily and for free via various online sites.
google pdf merge. then send the merged book to your reader/ add it to your calibre library... I have used this site, successfully. https://www.pdfmerge.com/ |

why dont change the extension to custom one,
pdf for view and pdf for print will be renamed by another extension. and made setting for the custom extension to open with pdf-viewer or archive to zip for convenience. |
