Best settings for 1:1 ePub to AZW3 conversion?
What's the best Calibre settings to make sure the ePub I convert to AZW3 stays as close to a 1:1 copy as possible?
Thanks |

My guess would be that if you went to Preferences - Common Options and clicked Restore defaults that you would be at the setup that manipulates the conversion the least.

Disable font size rescaling under Look & Feel, that is the main one. Other minor ones, under Structure Detection, set insert page breaks before to / and disable remove fake margins.

And what about "Disable compression of file contents"? Thanks. |

What about going the other way? Best settings for an AZW3 to ePub conversion?

Thanks, I'll take a look. Does it handle the conversion better?

Sometimes cleanup is required afterwards. This can be done in Sigil. |
