Verleden week is er geen nieuwe versie van Calibre uitgekomen, omdat hoofdonwikkelaar Kovid Goyal ziek was, maar deze week is het gewoon weer raak. 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 programma kranten, tijdschriften en nieuwsartikelen op basis van rss-feeds omzetten in e-bookformaat. Ook kunnen met Calibre boeken worden aangeschaft bij de bekende webwinkels. In deze uitgave zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen doorgevoerd:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Conversion of all ebook formats to Microsoft Word (DOCX) files
Supports conversion of text styles, images, lists, tables, embedded fonts, etc. Produces DOCX files compatible with Microsoft Word 2007 or newer. Note that this code is very new, so there will likely still be kinks that will be worked out in the coming weeks.- Add keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Right, Ctrl+Left) to switch between virtual library tabs. Closes tickets: 1453497.
- When sending email using GMX pause for five minutes between books, to prevent GMX from blocking the account. The delay can be configured via Preferences->Tweaks
