Download Caliber 0.8.34

Every Friday a new version of Caliber is released and today there is no deviation from it. Caliber is an open source and cross platform e-book management tool. Among other things, it can copy e-books to and from readers and convert them to make them suitable for the various types of e-readers. It can also convert newspapers, magazines and news articles based on RSS to e-book format and books can be purchased from well-known web stores. In version 0.8.33 the following changes and improvements have been made:

New Features

• Apple driver: Set the year field in iTunes based on the published date in caliber.
• EPUB Input: When converting a file that has entries in the manifest that do no exist, remove them, instead of aborting the conversion.
• Kindle driver: Ensure page counts are correctly sent to the device when connecting to Kindle 4/Touch.
• Allow user to set the number of recently viewed books shown in the dropdown menu of the view button, via a tweak in Preferences->Tweaks.

Bug Fixes

• Fix regression in 0.8.33 that caused caliber to crash when starting the Content Server, if the port the content server is trying to listen on is blocked/busy.
• MOBI Input: Fix regression that caused a mixup of images when the MOBI file header contains an incorrect first image index pointer.
• Do not remove leading and trailing spaces from the replace fields in the Search and Replace conversion options
• Conversion pipeline: Fix regression in 0.8.31 that broke parsing of documents containing a self closing tag.
