Copy library from Kobo to Pocketbook
Hi,

1st time poster.

I have purchased the Pocketbook Inkpad Lite to replace a Kobo Aura HD.

Is it possible to transfer the files keeping the Reading position stats ?

It would be nice to not have to open each book to mark as "finished" if possible.

Cheers
Marc

It's not possible at present to transfer the reading positions. It might be possible if someone were to write a plugin for calibre to take Kobo reading positions from Kobo Utilities and transfer them to a Pocketbook.

If you use Kobo Utilities and set it up to get the reading positions from your Kobo, you can then easily see which books are being read and only have to open those to be able to go to the correct page.

JSWolf,

I have the reading positions/percent setup on kobo...

" you can then easily see which books are being read and only have to open those to be able to go to the correct page."

are you saying to open Kobo get the Page # then find it on the Pocketbook? Or do the positions copy over from the epub?

Cheers
Marc

I'm Saying to sort your eBooks in calibre by the % read. If the % read is more then 0 and less then 100, open those eBooks on your Kobo and on your Pocketbook, go to that page via a search for some words.

Then you only have to deal with the eBooks you are currently reading and not any of the others.
