Most of the complaints I have with Calibre have to do with it being great at accepting annotations and data about books but being completely opposed to letting that data travel with my books later - I use it to fix weird formatting in ebooks, view ebooks, and organize a large library of books, but find myself constantly wishing it could be more than the helper application that facilitates my use of other software that is equally frustrating in terms of capabilities. There is a place for a developer to take my books and my money if they can manage a library half as well as Calibre and it isn't hard to improve on the reading experience of iBooks, but Calibre is able to tread the ground between desktop, mobile device, and ereader without falling on it's face in spite of the interface and performance oddities that come with most any software with similar requirements and toolkits. The UI is not as modern as some of us desire, but yet nobody hates it enough to submit changes - adding to the effort will be the fact that it's not written specifically for OS X but needs to cooperate within the confines of other platforms as well. You will not find a more feature-complete alternative anywhere, but may find it maddeningly obtuse at times. This software is purpose-driven and will eschew any attempts to make it into something it isn't. The so-called "calibre bug tracker" takes me to a Ubuntu site. I have been unable to find the developer's email address in order to send enhancement requests. In Calibre there is only a rotating wheel, and you never know when it's going to end.Ħ. The text is searchable and can be copied right away.ĥ.Ĝlearview has a process bar, so you always see how long a conversion is going to take. Clearview does an excellent job in converting ebooks to PDFs. I have now decided to dump Calibre due to the above mentioned drawbacks. Until now I have also converted the ebooks to Rich Text Files and read and annotated them in Nisus Writer Pro.Ĥ. The whole process is a real pain in the butt.ģ. The created PDFs are therefore utterly useless, until they themselves are converted again, this time with an OCR software.

No way to take notes and write annotations in Calibre, so – for my purpose – the ebooks must be converted.Ģ.Ěfter conversion, text in PDFs can neither be searched nor copied.
