(Which necessitates the Apprentice Alf drm removal plugin.) I still buy my books from Amazon and use Calibre to convert them to epub.

After converting the book to epub it might help to run it through that. In its Fix menu, at the top, is Swap Author, which is a godsend for when you've "fixed" them for the stupid Kindle.Īnother potentially useful plugin is Polish books.

I ask because the covers show up as screensavers as well on the forma. I really appreciate any insight you guys can give!ġ. My calibre library is completely catered toward the kindle's eccentricities, so I was just wondering if anyone had answers to my relatively niche questions. Hey guys, I am a longtime kindle user and I just ordered a kobo forma.
