The first '-' will be used to separate author's name form title. Something like ' Isaac Asimov - Nightfall.pdf' is a good filename. The filename should have the following format: ' Authors - Title' Put the script in your Calibre executable folder The script will then create a new EPUB file in the same folder of the original file.ĭownload the script from here ( Update: Download here the new version of the script, more info here) My tiny script will call the ebook-convert.exe command of Calibre, and will pass all the needed parameters. but in the end, after setting it up, I simply need it to take a PDF file and convert it to EPUB then I will simply copy this EPUB on my Kobo.Īfter all a Kobo, when connected to a PC, will function exactly like a simple flash drive :-)

To do that I wrote a script that will do the conversion from whatever format to EPUB, using Calibre and my standard format conversion parameters.įor my conversion needs, I've always used Calibre, its a very nice, powerful, and free eBooks management software.Ĭalibre can do an enormous amount of things. This, as a side effect, will also enable my girlfriend do autonomously convert and upload her eBooks to her Kobo Touch :-)

Now, after some month, and after too many manually converted eBooks, I've decided that I need to automatize the PDF/RTF/mobi/whatever to EPUB format conversion.

so nice that a week after I bought another one for me :-) This summer I've bought a Kobo Touch eBook reader as a gift for my girlfriend.
