Download Caliber 0.7.47

Caliber is an e-book management program and can handle almost all types of e-books and e-readers. Among other things, it makes it possible to convert e-books between the various formats in order to make e-books available on all platforms. In addition, it can also convert news articles based on RSS to e-book format and in this way make news available on e-readers. Caliber is intensively developed and a new version is released every week. Version 0.7.47 was released on Friday and has the following changelog:

New Features

• Tag Browser: Support the creation of nested User Categories. see here for details
• Disable Kent District Library plugin to download series information. The website could not handle the load caliber’s 2 million users put on it. You can manually re-enable it if you really want series information, but it is very slow
• Drivers for the Wexler T7001, Archos 7, Wink and Xperia X10
• Comic Input: Add option to not add links to individual pages to the Table of Contents when converting CBC files
• EPUB Output: Try to ensure that the cover image always has an id=’cover’ to workaround Nook cover reading bug.
