Description:
C: >-
<p>Calibre is meant to be a complete e-library solution. It includes library management, format conversion, news feeds
to e-book conversion as well as e-book reader sync features.</p>
<p>Calibre is primarily an e-book cataloging program. It manages your e-book 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 e-books in several formats.
It also supports conversion from a dozen different e-book formats to LRF and EPUB. A graphical interface to the conversion
software can be accessed easily by just clicking the "Convert E-books" button.</p>
<p>Supported input formats are: MOBI, LIT, PRC, EPUB, ODT, HTML, CBR, CBZ, RTF, TXT, PDF and LRS.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Calibre can automatically fetch news from a number of websites/RSS feeds, format the news into a e-book and upload
to a connected device. There is support for generating LRF/EPUB e-books. The e-books include the *full* versions of the
articles, not just the summaries.</p>
<p>Calibre has also a built-in e-book viewer that can display all the major e-book formats.</p>
