Until it reaches a certain size (260K was the Calibre default, safer for for older devices), Then the file was split at the closest Paragraph. I suspect your book is made up of 1 or a couple of huge (x)HTML files with the CSS doing a Logical PageBreak at each chapter

Which of the plugins you install and use depends on what you want to do. Finally, the Kobo Books metadata source plugin is to fetch metadata from the Kobo store for books. They are mainly needed if you are keeping kepubs in your calibre library.

The Kepub Metadata Writer and Kepub Metadata Reader are used to update and read metadata from kepubs respectively. The Kobo Input plugin is used if you have kepubs in your library and want to convert them to other formats. The Kobo Output plugin is not needed if you don't convert books to kepub using a conversion.

The extended driver does not do this, it des not change the internal file structure of the book.Īs to which of the plugins are reliable, they all are. A conversion in calibre usually does this if an internal file is longer than 260KB. This is because some ereaders have problems with internal files longer than this. The creator has probably split some longer chapters. Your chapter problem with the Witcher book is almost definitely in the source book. If you open it in the calibre editor, you can use the error checking to show the problems and fix them. If this happens, it usually means there is an error in the epub that needs to be fixed. The driver has an option to ignore the failures and send the epub as is. It is possible for the transformation to kepub to kepub to fail. With this when you send a book to the device, the extended driver will do the work to transform it into a kepub. In the configuration of the driver, you need to makes sure that 'Enable Extended Kobo Features' is enabled in the 'Extended' tab.

This can be done on the Plugins page of the preferences. You need to make sure it is enable, and, you should disable the built-in KoboTouch driver. If your only trying to get kepub to the device, then you probably just want the KoboTouchExtended driver. In the end, my question is this: which extensions are necessary (and which ones are useless) to properly send Kepub? Which are the most reliable extensions, and which ones to remove? I use 'Kobo Utilities' features. That's okay, but it bugs me.Īll this to say that there seems to be a problem with my conversion to Kepub.

The reader makes a page break and the chapter continues, but the reader calls it a new chapter. But when I get to the end of the chapter, I'm actually still in the same chapter. Basically, it says something like '34/35 pages in the chapter'. The problem is this: some chapters (about one chapter out of four or five) is cut in two. Finally, last problem, I noticed a problem with a book in Kepub, while the problem doesn't exist with the same one in Epub. Sometimes they are in Kepub but don't have all the features. The series, authors, descriptions, playback percentage, playback time, special features worked well.īut now, 1/2, when I send an ebook, it's in Epub. For a while, it worked well, when I clicked on 'send to device', it sent a Kepub automatically. I'm a bit lost in relation to the different extensions that allow to automatically convert EPUB to KEPUB.
