Nagenoeg elke vrijdag verschijnt er een nieuwe versie van Calibre en ook vandaag wordt daar niet van afgeweken. 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 omzetten naar e-bookformaat en kunnen boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. In versie 0.8.52 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen doorgevoerd:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- EPUB Input: When setting the cover for a book that identifies its cover image, but not the html wrapper around the cover, try to detect and remove that wrapper automatically.
- When deleting books of a specific format, show the number of books with each format available
- Linux install: No longer create MAN pages as all utilities have more comprehensive command line --help anyway
- Add a tweak Preferences->Tweaks to control the default choice of format for the Tweak Book feature
- Conversion: Allow setting negative page margins. A negative page margin means that calibre will not specify any page margin in the output document (for formats that support this)
New news sources
- Tweak book: Fix handling of covers when tweaking KF8 books
- KF8 Output: Handle input documents with out of sequence ToC entries. Note that currently section jumping in the KF8 output produced by calibre for such files does not work.
- Edit metadata dialog: Fix the edit values button for custom tag-like columns showing a unneeded warning about changed values
- EPUB Output: Be a little more conservative when removing
- EPUB Input: Correctly update the Cover entry in the ToC even when the entry has a fragment reference.
- Update ImagMagick DLLs in all calibre binary builds to fix security vulnerabilities in ImageMagick
- Advanced search dialog: Fix equals and regex matching not being applied for custom column searches.
- RTF Input: Handle old RTF files that have commands without braces.
- Get Books: Diesel, fix results not showing when only a single match is found
- Get Books: Fix DRM status indicators for Kobo and Diesel stores. Fix smashwords not returning results.
- Fix regression in 0.8.51 that broke viewing of LIT and some EPUB files
