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. In deze release zijn onder meer diverse verbeteringen aangebracht aan de onlangs geïntroduceerde module voor het opschonen van e-books.
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Book polishing: Add an option to smarten punctuation in the book when polishing
- Book polishing: Add an option to delete all saved settings to the load saved settings button
- Book polishing: Remember the last used settings
- Book polishing: Add a checkbox to enable/disable the detailed polishing report
- Add a separate tweak in Preferences-Tweaks for saving backups of files when polishing. That way you can have calibre save backups while converting EPUB->EPUB and not while polishing, if you so desire.

- Driver for Energy Systems C4 Touch.
