Elke vrijdag verschijnt er een nieuwe versie van Calibre en ook vandaag is daar geen uitzondering op. Calibre is een opensource- en crossplatform-e-book-beheerprogramma. Het kan onder andere e-boeken van en naar readers kopiëren en deze converteren om ze geschikt te maken voor de diverse soorten e-readers. Verder kan het kranten, tijdschriften en nieuwsartikelen op basis van rss omzetten naar e-bookformaat en kunnen boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. In versie 0.8.31 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen doorgevoerd:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Conversion engine: When parsing invalid XHTML use the HTML 5 algorithm, for greater robustness.
- Driver for PocketBook 611 and Lenovo IdeaPad
- Allow customization of the order in which custom column editing is performed in the edit metadata dialog. Setting is available via Preferences->Tweaks.
- MOBI news download: Allow recipes to set a thumbnail for entries in the periodical table of contents. Currently used by the NYTimes, WSJ, Independent, GUardian and Globe and Mail recipes
- E-book viewer: Add an option to the right click menu to search for the currently selected word
- Automatically hide the no internet connection available error message if the connection is restored before the user clicks OK

- When downloading metadata from non-English Amazon websites, do not correct the case of book titles.
- Fix regression in 0.8.30 that broke bulk conversion of a single book.

- Comic Input: Do not rescale images when using the Tablet output profile (or any output profile with a screen size larger than 3000x3000)
