Updated PDF conversion help
I have a reworked version of reflow.py for the new PDF engine.
It seems to work better than the standard method, so I would like to publish it so that others can add improvements. Before doing that, I need to update the Preferences settings to add new fields to assist the conversion. I have not been able to find the correct method for doing this. I know the UI fields to set up, but I have not found out where/how to save these and pass them to the input. I have not tested it with ebook-convert. I assume that also needs new command-line options. Any help would be much appreciated. Alan |

I have now got the Calibre menu set up and working.
I have tried to build the command-line utilities, but I get errors when compiling PoDoFo. I have Ubuntu 22.04 which loads PoDoFo 0.9.7. I am guessing that Calibre uses a later -dev package, but I don't know which. Does anyone know which package(s) I should be installing for the build. The manual says: git clone https://github.com/kovidgoyal/bypy.git git clone https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre.git cd calibre but that creates a bypy directory, and a calibre directory which also contains bypy. The build seems to run in the calible/bypy tree and the bypy tree doesn't contain the build scripts. I am happy to commit the current changes, but it seems wrong to do half the job. All help appreciated. Alan |

You will probably have better luck in the calibre development subforum.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=240 I think that you can have a moderator move your thread by reporting your post with the "!" button to the right of the "Karma" button at the bottom of your post. |
