Caliber 7.8

Version 7.8 of Caliber has been released. This open source e-book management tool is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. It can, among other things, look up all relevant information and cover images, and convert e-books to make them suitable for various types of e-readers. Furthermore, the program can convert newspapers, magazines and news articles into e-book format based on RSS feeds. Books can also be purchased with Caliber from well-known online stores.

In version 7.0 it is possible to add notes, for example, authors and series, and support for EPUB audiobooks has been added. Additional files can also be added to books, such as an alternative cover image, and Caliber now has its own trash can, which can be used instead of the one in the OS. The following changes and improvements have also been made in this third update:
