Ook deze vrijdag staat er weer een nieuwe versie van Calibre voor je klaar. Calibre is een opensource- en crossplatform-e-book-beheerprogramma. Het kan onder andere e-boeken van en naar readers kopiëren en ze converteren om ze geschikt te maken voor de diverse soorten e-readers. Verder kan het kranten, tijdschriften en nieuwsartikelen op basis van rss-feeds omzetten naar e-bookformaat, en kunnen er boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. Hieronder is te vinden welke veranderingen en verbeteringen deze week zijn aangebracht.

New Features

• News download: Add support for logging in to sites that require javascript for their logins.
• News download: Do not convert all downloaded images to JPG format. This fixes the problem of PNG images with transparent backgrounds being rendered with black backgrounds
• CHM Input: Support hierarchical table of contents. Do not generate an inline table of contents when a metadata table of contents is present. Also correctly decode the text in the table of contents
• Get Books: Add the beam-ebooks.de store
• Make custom yes/no columns using icons put text values under the icons.
• Driver for LG E400 and SayCoolA710
• Speed up device connection when there are lots of books on the device by not generating cover thumbnails unless they are actually needed.
• Have the metadata download dialog remember its last used size.

Bug Fixes

• Fix deleting a custom column that was used in a column coloring rule makes the column coloring preferences panel unusable
• Store caches outside the config directory for non-portable calibre installs
• PDF Output: Dont crash if the user has a font on his system that is missing the OS/2 table
• Conversion: Do not error out because of an error in user supplied search replace rules.
• Conversion: Replace all non-ascii characters in CSS class names, as they cause problems with some broken EPUB renderers.
• Do not choke when reading metadata from MOBI files with incorrectly encoded metadata fields
• Conversion: Preserve ToC entries that point nowhere instead of causing them to point to a non-existent file
• E-book viewer: Allow entries in the Table of Contents that do not point anywhere, instead of just ignoring them.
• Content server: Fix the 'Previous' link in the mobile version of the content server webpage skipping an entry
