I think it remembers previous choices so that you can use them easily, but, it isn't something I do often enough to remember. This will prompt you to select the application to open the book with. What's worse it is was a common problem and I have fixed it in other places but didn't think of this one.Īnd, I should also mention that there are probably two other ways to achieve this.įirstly, if you have Jutoh associated with the book format you want to edit (meaning you can double-click on the book in explorer to open it), then you can change the preferences in calibre to use the OS settings to open the book.Īnd calibre has it's own "Open with". I have done some maintenance of the plugin, but, I obviously missed that. If it doesn't, then hopefully you will get an error message and we can work from that.Īs to the help, I have to say "whoops". I suggest you try the above and see what happens. I don't use Jutoh, so can't say what is needed. If other parameters are needed, you will need to add them. If there is nothing in this field, the plugin will start the application with the path to the book file. The "Args" are probably the main problem.

Would you be willing to add Jutoh to the pre-programmed list alongside Sigil for say a $20 donation? When I click on the plugin Help all I get is some kind of error, so I can't learn how to do it myself. I can't add Jutoh to the 'Open With' plugin, but I sure would like to. Then you can re-crop, fiddle the colours, and so on, and export the result.Common uses are to allow editing a specific format of a book in an external editor (such as to edit an EPUB in Sigil), or to edit the cover of a book in an external graphics program to crop/resize it. They will open on top of each other, so hit "M" (for "move"), and drag them so the edges match up. Then do File->Open as Layers and select your two cropped, exported images. Then do File-New and make an image as wide as the two cropped images together. Just open each image, and crop just the left and right margins so the images are at the edge. If you have an image, like a title headpiece, that spans two pages, you can easily put them together in Gimp, too. If the image is very speckled, a paint brush can help, or go the layer route as Jellby suggests (I've never tried that, sounds good, if complicated). Ctrl-Click to pick up the background colour, then over-paint.

If the image wraps around text, I simply use a paint brush to eliminate it. Then use Colours->Curves or Colours->Brightness-Contrast to get a sharp contrast that will show up well on enik. Right-click and Colors->Desaturate->Colours to Grey. If the image isn't too brown or yellow, this is often enough. Drag the right side of the curve up to lighten, drag the left side down to darken. It gets maps you can actually read on eink.ģa. If a map, diagram, or something I may want to zoom in on, 300px/in or more.

For a full page image I use 1200px as the max height. (Using a CBR/CBZ you are opening the whole page as an image).Ģ. Crop the images if necessary (rectangle select, then right-click and Crop to Selection) to get shape the way I want it and get rid of big margins. (I always use the CBR/CBZ version for OCR, useless to convert their pdfs, they are terrible, and the CBR/CBZ images are nice big originals):ġ. In Gimp, here is what I do and it usually gets results easily good enough for eink readers.
