Calibre is meant to be a complete e-library solution. It includes library
management, format conversion, news feeds to ebook conversion as well as
e-book reader sync features.

Calibre is primarily a ebook cataloging program. It manages your ebook
collection for you. It is designed around the concept of the logical book,
i.e. a single entry in the database that may correspond to ebooks in several
formats. It also upports conversion from a dozen different ebook formats to
LRF and EPUB. A graphical interface to the conversion software can be
accessed easily by just clicking the "Convert E-books" button.

Supported input formats are: MOBI, LIT, PRC, EPUB, ODT, HTML, CBR, CBZ, RTF,
TXT, PDF and LRS.

Calibre has a modular device driver design that makes adding support for
different e-reader devices easy. At the moment, it has support for the
SONY PRS 500/505/700 and the iPhone (with the stanza reader software).
Syncing supports updating metadata on the device from metadata in the library
and the creation of collections on the device based on the tags defined in
the library view. If an book has more than one format available, calibre
automatically chooses the best format when uploading to the device.

Calibre can automatically fetch news from a number of websites/RSS feeds,
format the news into a ebook and upload to a connected device. There is
support for generating LRF/EPUB ebooks. The ebooks include the *full*
versions of the articles, not just the summaries.

Calibre has also a built-in ebook viewer that can display all the major ebook
formats.

  • help! I have a cbr file that ive been trying to convert to pdf to read on my nook color. Ive tried Jomic and Calibre. Jomic leaves me with many missing pages and Calibre leaves a tiny piece of my comic at the bottom of each page and removes the cover. I have tried to manually edit everything before the conversion and Im all out of ideas as to whats the problem with my file. When I open the cbr file on its own theres no problem but its when I convert it It screws up. Do you have any ideas?

  • @SpaceBandit666 might want to get a CBR reader app instead of trying to convert it to a PDF, which is a waste of time since ur nook is basically a computer which can handle CBR files natively

  • PC users have to use so much time hacking at it....what a lame system.

    My mac obeys my commands, it also interpretes my desires and automatically "fulfils" them.

    Mac experience is priceless.

    or you can watch this lame dude (and his tinker bell cursor) talk for ever.
