Could you for next version add POD documentation also to the file? You can read it by "perldoc mobi2imp.pl". You should also check that the binary for version 2 works so we know that the process is working. |

Installing the free eBook Publisher software from http://www.ebooktechnologies.com/sup...r_download.htm will get rid of that error. ![]() -Nick |

Making the error message a bit less obscure might not be a bad idea, though, because it's not immediately obvious that mobi2imp needs eBook Publisher in order to function. |

none of the older versions work on my Vista system. I also have an XP machine, and they indeed do work on those, but i have to evacuate my entire top floor to be able to reach it....
![]() Is there anyone who is able or willing to compile a Vista/core2duo compatible version? (if that is indeed the problem) |

If I make a Mobi format eBook based on HarryT's directions, will mobi2imp make a better eBook then Book Designer (now that I have the updated DLL)?

@ DMcCunney: I already did that i'm afraid....no succes.
It does start to do things, but when it says it's saving the .mobi file, my CPU starts making over-hours and it "hangs"...no file is being saved.. |

Also, the 'margins' and 'text-justification' can be better controlled in the mobi2imp (especially if you are using just the mobi2imp.pl perl script and not the windows binaries). By the way, there is another fix (see my TIP: thread) that allows some margin settings to survive in the .imp version. But it is somewhat cumbersome. With mobi2imp, just beware that you're stuck with any inconsistencies (if any) introduced by the .prc/.mobi original when converting over. However, 'mobi2imp' also creates a .opf that can be loaded into eBook Publisher and from there you can further edit/build it. All in all, I like the output of mobi2imp. Unfortunately, I don't have much hands-on experience using BD, so I really can't say which is better. We are on the right track though... How exactly do you prepare the 3 popular formats of an ebook? If you make three successive calls to 'Make eBooks', then there is not much time to save by only making two successive calls to 'Make eBooks' and one mobi2imp invocation.

Mobi2imp - version 4 ready for Mobiperl distribution
tompe:
I updated mobi2imp.pl from version 2 (included in the Mobiperl v0.0.31 distribution) to version 4. Please include this version for any future distribution. Things that changed: - Now better indicates that eBook Publisher must be installed first. I also attach the external program windows users can have 'mobi2imp' execute to 'fix' corrupt images within the .prc (that the eBook Publisher software says it can't handle). It is called nconvert.exe and is freely distributable.- now takes '--1200' and '--1100' to allow for the simultaneous creation of the REB 1200 and REB 1100 versions along with the EBW 1150 .IMP version. - conversly, if '--1150' is specified, then the EBW 1150 .IMP version is NOT created. If you choose to not include this external program in Mobiperl, then please comment out that 'system nconvert.exe' call line in sub fix_image_tags. I am just learning about POD documentation, so haven't done anything yet for 'mobi2imp'. -Nick |

nrapallo, can you try the following Mobi format eBook with your Pearl script please? I'd like to know how it compares to the IMP version as output by Book Designer.
Mobi Edition as created using HarryT's directions https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13606 IMP version created using Book Designer https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17586 Thanks! |
