Zoals bijna elke vrijdag is er weer een nieuwe versie van Calibre verschenen. Calibre is een opensource- en crossplatform-e-bookbeheerprogramma. 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 er kunnen boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. Het changelog van release 0.8.67 ziet er als volgt uit:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- PDF Output: Generate a PDF Outline based on the Table of Contents of the input document
- Conversion: Add an option under Structure Detection to set the 'Start reading at' metadata with an XPath expression.
- Speed up changing the title and author of files with books larger than 3MB by avoiding an unnecessary extra copy.
- Wireless device driver: Make detecting and connecting to devices easier on networks where mdns is disabled
- PDF Output: Allow choosing the default font family and size when generating PDF files (under PDF Options) in the conversion dialog
- Metadata dialog: Comments editor: Allow specifying the name of a link when using the insert link button.

- PDF Output: Do not create duplicate embedded fonts in the PDF for every individual HTML file in the input document
- Fix regression that broke DnD of files having a # character in their names to the book details panel
