Converting

Please Help!

This is the message that I keep getting everytime I try to convert one of the free Tor books that they are sending out, I download the HTML format and then when I try to convert it this happens, it didnt happen with the first one, Mistborne, when I got that, but has happened on the last 3. Being totally computer illiterate, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and how I go about fixing it.


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "parallel.py", line 154, in run_job
File "libprs500\ebooks\lrf\any\convert_from.pyo", line 170, in main
File "libprs500\ebooks\lrf\any\convert_from.pyo", line 142, in process_file
UnknownFormatError: Coverting from %s to LRF is not supported.

Thanks in advance

Steve.

What version Libprs500 are you using and what is the exact command line you are using? If you are using the GUI, please use the command line so we can see just what it is you are doing.

Also, the HTML has no ToC so unless you've used either Book Designer or added in a ToC, you won't get a ToC.

Steve,
There is not sufficient information to give you an answer. Also with out access to a couple of the files it is difficult to run any meaningful tests.

Some things that might help us to help you:

What machine are you running on?
What OS are you using?
What version of lbrs500 are you using?
Did you do the conversion from the GUI or the command line?
If you have not done the conversion in command mode, do so with the --verbose switch on and post the resulting messages from the beginning of the run to its end!
Is there any way you can get copies of a couple of the files which have failed and also a copy of the one with which you have been sucessful?
