Find and Replace Code feature in Calibre

Reflect55 · 01-21-2016, 01:22 PM

Hello-- I am new to Calibre-- and trying to get a handle on it. Does Calibre have a find and replace code feature? Where I can highlight the code find it -- and have it replace all the code exactly like what was highlighted?

Find and replace what?

You posted this in the devices subforum, which deals with... device connectivity. I confess I am not sure how you would use a find and replace to modify the device you have connected to your computer.

...

Are you referring to metadata? ("Library Management" subforum)

Right-click Edit Metadata (is a toolbar icon) ==> Edit metadata in bulk ==> Search and Replace (third tab)

The content of the book? ("Editor" subforum)

The E-Book Editor has a dedicated "Search" section in the "File... Edit... View..." menubar.

@Reflect55 - the book Editor has find and replace. Conversion has a section for Search and Replace.

But, since you mention 'code' I'll move this to the Editor subforum - the editor can edit ePUB and AZW3 formats
