Spread the love

A new update for version 3.0 of Caliber has been released. Caliber is an open source and cross platform ebook management program. Among other things, it can look up all relevant information and cover images, and convert e-books to make them suitable for the various types of e-readers. Furthermore, the program can convert newspapers, magazines and news articles based on RSS feeds into e-book format. Books can also be purchased with Caliber at the well-known web stores. The program is under active development and a new version is usually released every other week on Friday. In version 3.0 little has changed in the appearance of the program. There is, however, a completely new content server and support for high-resolution screens. The following improvements have also been made in this update:
