Versie 1.18 van Calibre is uitgekomen. Calibre is een opensource- en crossplatform-e-bookbeheerprogramma. Het kan onder andere alle relevante informatie en kaftafbeeldingen opzoeken, en e-boeken 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 in e-bookformaat, en kunnen er boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. In deze release zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Add an option to control how completion works when editing authors/tags/series/etc. Closes tickets: 1264304
By default, when completing items, calibre will show you all the candidates that start with the text you have already typed. You can instead have it show all candidates that contain the text you have already typed. To do this, go to Preferences->Tweaks->Completion mode. For example, if you type asi it will now match both Asimov and Quasimodo, whereas the default behavior would match only Asimov.- Edit book: Add a check for too large HTML files when running the check book tool. Closes tickets: 1264680
- Conversion: Sort the CSS rules in the output stylesheet using a 'natural' sort algorithm, so that calibre2 sorts before calibre10. Closes tickets: 1265175
- Cybook Orizon driver: Upload cover thumbnails in the correct format and add an option to control what directory books are sent to on the SD card. Closes tickets: 1265225
