Help creating the correct expression

Kosst Amojan · 11-03-2010, 07:56 PM

I have a series of books in txt format that I want to import into Calibre but I need the correct expression for them to import correctly.

For example one of the books is labled as such:

Du - 003 - Children of Dune

I would like for it to end up with a Title of "Dune Children of Dune" (no quotes) so I can fetch the correct medadata.

Also there are several sci-fi series all formated the same way...anyway to batch import the metadata once all the title info is correct? Thanks

There's a tutorial on how to create these expressions in the manual.
