Well, if they're harmless and ignorable, then please tell me how to do a PDF 2 EPUB conversion from the Calibre-Web UI cause I cannot figure it out.

[aptalca]

No idea. I don't see anything about it in the logs you posted.

[oywino]

Neither do I.
I was just wondering what I was supposed to look for in the UI in order to do conversions. Cause so far, there's nothing that I can find.

[aptalca]

It's probably a question for calibre-web then

[oywino]

Well, I came here because I do not have any issues with Calibre-web as such. My questions are purely related to the conversion mod add-in or plug-in or whatever it is.

[j0nnymoe]

In terms of the setup, you need to make sure the binary is set correctly within calibre-web (Calibre-Web -> Admin -> Basic Configuration -> External binaries)
, then once that is set I believe the option becomes available.

Well, I came here because I do not have any issues with Calibre-web as such. My questions are purely related to the conversion mod add-in or plug-in or whatever it is.

All this mod does is add the calibre binary in. That's all. It doesn't add or modify any feature or function other than that.

Calibre-web manages all the conversions through the calibre binary. If there is an issue with that, that's calibre-web's territory.

[oywino]

Wow, great! I managed to get the "plug-in" working. At least it appears so. When I select; "From PDF to EPUB" and click on the convert button, I get a message at the bottom of the web page saying "Book successfully queued for converting to EPUB"
This message disappears after 3 seconds, but so what? Where do I find the epub file?

[aptalca]

Those are all questions for calibre-web.
