Printing Calibre Library

Fbone · 07-23-2016, 12:10 AM

Can someone tell me what's the easiest way to print your Calibre library?

Thanks very much.

As in a list of the books in the library?

I don't know if it's the easiest, but what comes to mind would be to create a CSV catalog (little down arrow by Convert Books--->Create catalog of books in your Calibre library--->select format and etc you want) and then print that from Excel, Google Sheets, Open Offic Calc etc. after tweaking if wanted.

Also via the calibredb list command.

Hi... How can I do it? I was just about to post the same question. I know about the CVS option, but it's a little slow, too many steps (export, import, print) I wonder if there's a more faster way.

The catalogue CSV option has an Add catalogue to library option that will create an ePub, which you can open with the viewer, which has a print to PDF option.

If you create a csv file via the catalogue feature, or via the command line you end up with a csv file, which you have to import into something that has print functionality.

I import into nirsoft's CSVFileView and use it's View->HTML report feature. Much simpler than spreadsheet s/w like Calc or Excel. But its just a viewer, with some layout adjustment capability, but no calculations. Sample attached
