Large AZW3 file without DRM won't convert
Hey there. I'm a first time poster. I have a 62 MB AZW3 book that I would like to read on my Ipad Air 2. I have tried to get it onto my Ipad in its current form, but it won't work. Changing the extension name to .mobi was no help. So I've turned to Calibre to try to convert it to mobi or epub. The book has no DRM, I am able to view it in the Calibre reader and I was able to transfer it to my kindle fire HD before it broke. But when I try converting it, the file stops at 47% for about 90 minutes before giving me this error message:
Flattening CSS and remapping font sizes... Python function terminated unexpectedly (Error Code: 1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 1153, in run File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\transforms\flatcss.py" , line 185, in __call__ File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\transforms\flatcss.py" , line 264, in stylize_spine File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\stylizer.py", line 273, in __init__ File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\stylizer.py", line 360, in flatten_rule MemoryError Can anyone tell me what is going on or suggest an alternative? |

Uninstall calibre and then install the 64bit version of calibre (your library and settings will remain untouched).

I can give you two solutions to your problem. One WILL work and one might work.
The one solutions that WILL work is to install the Kindle app and download the eBook via the Kindle app and read it there. The other solution that might get it converted into an ePub requires you to be able to download the eBook via the Kindle app. Can you do that? Last edited by JSWolf; 12-29-2014 at 11:43 PM. |
