Software Update: Caliber 6.9.0 – Computer – Downloads

Version 6.9.0 of Caliber has been released. The open source e-book manager is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. Among other things, it can search for all relevant information and cover images, and convert e-books to make them suitable for different types of e-readers. Moreover, the software can convert newspapers, magazines, and news articles based on RSS feeds into eBook format. Books with Caliber can also be purchased from well-known web stores.

in Version 6.0 Among other things, it has been switched to Qt 6. However, this means that the program only works on computers with a 64-bit processor and requires a minimum of Windows 10 or macOS 11. Moreover, it is now possible to search all books in library instead of just the current book, and there are also versions for Arm and Apple Silicon processors. The following changes and improvements are also made in this fourth update:
