ebook-convert input_file output_file [options]
Convert an e-book from one format to another.
input_file is the input and output_file is the output. Both must
be specified as the first two arguments to the command.
The output e-book format is guessed from the file extension of
output_file. output_file can also be of the special format .EXT where EXT is
the output file extension. In this case, the name of the output file is
derived from the name of the input file. Note that the filenames must not
start with a hyphen. Finally, if output_file has no extension, then it is
treated as a directory and an "open e-book" (OEB) consisting of
HTML files is written to that directory. These files are the files that
would normally have been passed to the output plugin.
After specifying the input and output file you can customize the
conversion by specifying various options. The available options depend on
the input and output file types. To get help on them specify the input and
output file and then use the -h option.
For full documentation of the conversion system see conversion
Whenever you pass arguments to ebook-convert that have
spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks. For example:
"/some path/with spaces"
The options and default values for the options change depending on
both the input and output formats, so you should always check with:
ebook-convert myfile.input_format myfile.output_format -h
Below are the options that are common to all conversion, followed
by the options specific to every input and output format.

- --input-profile
- Specify the input profile. The input profile gives the conversion system
information on how to interpret various information in the input document.
For example resolution dependent lengths (i.e. lengths in pixels). Choices
are:cybookg3, cybook_opus, default, hanlinv3, hanlinv5, illiad,
irexdr1000, irexdr800, kindle, msreader, mobipocket, nook, sony, sony300,
sony900
- --list-recipes
- List builtin recipe names. You can create an e-book from a builtin recipe
like this: ebook-convert "Recipe Name.recipe"
output.epub
- --output-profile
- Specify the output profile. The output profile tells the conversion system
how to optimize the created document for the specified device (such as by
resizing images for the device screen size). In some cases, an output
profile can be used to optimize the output for a particular device, but
this is rarely necessary. Choices are:cybookg3, cybook_opus, default,
generic_eink, generic_eink_hd, generic_eink_large, hanlinv3, hanlinv5,

- --dont-split-on-page-breaks
- Turn off splitting at page breaks. Normally, input files are automatically
split at every page break into two files. This gives an output e-book that
can be parsed faster and with less resources. However, splitting is slow
and if your source file contains a very large number of page breaks, you
should turn off splitting on page breaks.
- --epub-flatten
- This option is needed only if you intend to use the EPUB with FBReaderJ.
It will flatten the file system inside the EPUB, putting all files into
the top level.
- --epub-version
- The version of the EPUB file to generate. EPUB 2 is the most widely
compatible, only use EPUB 3 if you know you actually need it.
- Extract the contents of the generated EPUB file to the specified
directory. The contents of the directory are first deleted, so be
careful.

- --no-default-epub-cover
- Normally, if the input file has no cover and you don't specify one,
a default cover is generated with the title, authors, etc. This option
disables the generation of this cover.
- --no-svg-cover
- Do not use SVG for the book cover. Use this option if your EPUB is going
to be used on a device that does not support SVG, like the iPhone or the
JetBook Lite. Without this option, such devices will display the cover as
a blank page.
- --preserve-cover-aspect-ratio
- When using an SVG cover, this option will cause the cover to scale to
cover the available screen area, but still preserve its aspect ratio
(ratio of width to height). That means there may be white borders at the
sides or top and bottom of the image, but the image will never be
distorted. Without this option the image may be slightly distorted, but
there will be no borders.

- --asciiize
- Transliterate unicode characters to an ASCII representation. Use with care
because this will replace unicode characters with ASCII. For instance it
will replace "Михаил
Горбачёв"
with "Mikhail Gorbachiov". Also, note that in
cases where there are multiple representations of a character (characters
shared by Chinese and Japanese for instance) the representation based on
the current calibre interface language will be used.
- --base-font-size
- The base font size in pts. All font sizes in the produced book will be
rescaled based on this size. By choosing a larger size you can make the
fonts in the output bigger and vice versa. By default, when the value is
zero, the base font size is chosen based on the output profile you
chose.
- --change-justification
- Change text justification. A value of "left"
converts all justified text in the source to left aligned (i.e.
unjustified) text. A value of "justify" converts
all unjustified text to justified. A value of
"original" (the default) does not change
justification in the source file. Note that only some output formats
support justification.
- --embed-all-fonts
- Embed every font that is referenced in the input document but not already
embedded. This will search your system for the fonts, and if found, they
will be embedded. Embedding will only work if the format you are
converting to supports embedded fonts, such as EPUB, AZW3, DOCX or PDF.
Please ensure that you have the proper license for embedding the fonts
used in this document.
- --embed-font-family
- Embed the specified font family into the book. This specifies the
"base" font used for the book. If the input
document specifies its own fonts, they may override this base font. You
can use the filter style information option to remove fonts from the input
document. Note that font embedding only works with some output formats,
principally EPUB, AZW3 and DOCX.
- --expand-css
- By default, calibre will use the shorthand form for various CSS properties
such as margin, padding, border, etc. This option will cause it to use the
full expanded form instead. Note that CSS is always expanded when
generating EPUB files with the output profile set to one of the Nook
profiles as the Nook cannot handle shorthand CSS.
- Either the path to a CSS stylesheet or raw CSS. This CSS will be appended
to the style rules from the source file, so it can be used to override
those rules.
- --filter-css
- A comma separated list of CSS properties that will be removed from all CSS
style rules. This is useful if the presence of some style information
prevents it from being overridden on your device. For example:
font-family,color,margin-left,margin-right
- --font-size-mapping
- Mapping from CSS font names to font sizes in pts. An example setting is
12,12,14,16,18,20,22,24. These are the mappings for the sizes xx-small to
xx-large, with the final size being for huge fonts. The font rescaling
algorithm uses these sizes to intelligently rescale fonts. The default is
to use a mapping based on the output profile you chose.

- --insert-blank-line-size
- Set the height of the inserted blank lines (in em). The height of the
lines between paragraphs will be twice the value set here.
- --keep-ligatures
- Preserve ligatures present in the input document. A ligature is a special
rendering of a pair of characters like ff, fi, fl et cetera. Most readers
do not have support for ligatures in their default fonts, so they are
unlikely to render correctly. By default, calibre will turn a ligature
into the corresponding pair of normal characters. This option will
preserve them instead.
- --line-height
- The line height in pts. Controls spacing between consecutive lines of
text. Only applies to elements that do not define their own line height.
In most cases, the minimum line height option is more useful. By default
no line height manipulation is performed.
- --linearize-tables
- Some badly designed documents use tables to control the layout of text on
the page. When converted these documents often have text that runs off the
page and other artifacts. This option will extract the content from the
tables and present it in a linear fashion.
- --margin-bottom
- Set the bottom margin in pts. Default is 5.0. Setting this to less than
zero will cause no margin to be set (the margin setting in the original
document will be preserved). Note: Page oriented formats such as PDF and
DOCX have their own margin settings that take precedence.
- --margin-left
- Set the left margin in pts. Default is 5.0. Setting this to less than zero
will cause no margin to be set (the margin setting in the original
document will be preserved). Note: Page oriented formats such as PDF and
DOCX have their own margin settings that take precedence.
- --margin-right
- Set the right margin in pts. Default is 5.0. Setting this to less than
zero will cause no margin to be set (the margin setting in the original
document will be preserved). Note: Page oriented formats such as PDF and
DOCX have their own margin settings that take precedence.
- --margin-top
- Set the top margin in pts. Default is 5.0. Setting this to less than zero
will cause no margin to be set (the margin setting in the original
document will be preserved). Note: Page oriented formats such as PDF and
DOCX have their own margin settings that take precedence.
- --minimum-line-height
- The minimum line height, as a percentage of the element's
calculated font size. calibre will ensure that every element has a line
height of at least this setting, irrespective of what the input document
specifies. Set to zero to disable. Default is 120%. Use this setting in
preference to the direct line height specification, unless you know what
you are doing. For example, you can achieve "double
spaced" text by setting this to 240.
- --remove-paragraph-spacing
- Remove spacing between paragraphs. Also sets an indent on paragraphs of
1.5em. Spacing removal will not work if the source file does not use
paragraphs (<p> or <div> tags).
- --remove-paragraph-spacing-indent-size
- When calibre removes blank lines between paragraphs, it automatically sets
a paragraph indent, to ensure that paragraphs can be easily distinguished.
This option controls the width of that indent (in em). If you set this
value negative, then the indent specified in the input document is used,
that is, calibre does not change the indentation.
- --smarten-punctuation
- Convert plain quotes, dashes and ellipsis to their typographically correct
equivalents. For details, see
https://daringfireball.net/projects/smartypants
- --subset-embedded-fonts
- Subset all embedded fonts. Every embedded font is reduced to contain only
the glyphs used in this document. This decreases the size of the font
files. Useful if you are embedding a particularly large font with lots of
unused glyphs.
- --transform-css-rules
- Path to a file containing rules to transform the CSS styles in this book.
The easiest way to create such a file is to use the wizard for creating
rules in the calibre GUI. Access it in the "Look &
feel->Transform styles" section of the conversion dialog.
Once you create the rules, you can use the
"Export" button to save them to a file.
Modify the document text and structure using common patterns.
Disabled by default. Use --enable-heuristics to enable. Individual actions
can be disabled with the --disable-* options.
- --disable-dehyphenate
- Analyze hyphenated words throughout the document. The document itself is
used as a dictionary to determine whether hyphens should be retained or
removed.
- --disable-fix-indents
- Turn indentation created from multiple non-breaking space entities into
CSS indents.
- --disable-format-scene-breaks
- Left aligned scene break markers are center aligned. Replace soft scene
breaks that use multiple blank lines with horizontal rules.
- --disable-markup-chapter-headings
- Detect unformatted chapter headings and sub headings. Change them to h2
and h3 tags. This setting will not create a TOC, but can be used in
conjunction with structure detection to create one.
- --disable-renumber-headings
- Looks for occurrences of sequential <h1> or <h2> tags. The
tags are renumbered to prevent splitting in the middle of chapter
headings.
- --enable-heuristics
- Enable heuristic processing. This option must be set for any heuristic
processing to take place.
- --html-unwrap-factor
- Scale used to determine the length at which a line should be unwrapped.
Valid values are a decimal between 0 and 1. The default is 0.4, just below
the median line length. If only a few lines in the document require
unwrapping this value should be reduced
- --replace-scene-breaks
- Replace scene breaks with the specified text. By default, the text from
the input document is used.

Modify the document text and structure using user defined
patterns.
- --search-replace
- Path to a file containing search and replace regular expressions. The file
must contain alternating lines of regular expression followed by
replacement pattern (which can be an empty line). The regular expression
must be in the Python regex syntax and the file must be UTF-8
encoded.
- --sr1-replace
- Replacement to replace the text found with sr1-search.
- --sr1-search
- Search pattern (regular expression) to be replaced with sr1-replace.
- --sr2-replace
- Replacement to replace the text found with sr2-search.
- --sr2-search
- Search pattern (regular expression) to be replaced with sr2-replace.
- --sr3-replace
- Replacement to replace the text found with sr3-search.
- --sr3-search
- Search pattern (regular expression) to be replaced with sr3-replace.

- --chapter
- An XPath expression to detect chapter titles. The default is to consider
<h1> or <h2> tags that contain the words
"chapter", "book",
"section", "prologue",
"epilogue" or "part" as
chapter titles as well as any tags that have
class="chapter". The expression used must evaluate
to a list of elements. To disable chapter detection, use the expression
"/". See the XPath Tutorial in the calibre User
Manual for further help on using this feature.
- --chapter-mark
- Specify how to mark detected chapters. A value of
"pagebreak" will insert page breaks before
chapters. A value of "rule" will insert a line
before chapters. A value of "none" will disable
chapter marking and a value of "both" will use
both page breaks and lines to mark chapters.
- --disable-remove-fake-margins
- Some documents specify page margins by specifying a left and right margin
on each individual paragraph. calibre will try to detect and remove these
margins. Sometimes, this can cause the removal of margins that should not
have been removed. In this case you can disable the removal.
- --insert-metadata
- Insert the book metadata at the start of the book. This is useful if your
e-book reader does not support displaying/searching metadata
directly.
- --page-breaks-before
- An XPath expression. Page breaks are inserted before the specified
elements. To disable use the expression: /
- --remove-first-image
- Remove the first image from the input e-book. Useful if the input document
has a cover image that is not identified as a cover. In this case, if you
set a cover in calibre, the output document will end up with two cover
images if you do not specify this option.
- --start-reading-at
- An XPath expression to detect the location in the document at which to
start reading. Some e-book reading programs (most prominently the Kindle)
use this location as the position at which to open the book. See the XPath
tutorial in the calibre User Manual for further help using this
feature.

- --duplicate-links-in-toc
- When creating a TOC from links in the input document, allow duplicate
entries, i.e. allow more than one entry with the same text, provided that
they point to a different location.
- --level1-toc
- XPath expression that specifies all tags that should be added to the Table
of Contents at level one. If this is specified, it takes precedence over
other forms of auto-detection. See the XPath Tutorial in the calibre User
Manual for examples.
- --level2-toc
- XPath expression that specifies all tags that should be added to the Table
of Contents at level two. Each entry is added under the previous level one
entry. See the XPath Tutorial in the calibre User Manual for
examples.
- --level3-toc
- XPath expression that specifies all tags that should be added to the Table
of Contents at level three. Each entry is added under the previous level
two entry. See the XPath Tutorial in the calibre User Manual for
examples.
- --max-toc-links
- Maximum number of links to insert into the TOC. Set to 0 to disable.
Default is: 50. Links are only added to the TOC if less than the threshold
number of chapters were detected.
- --toc-filter
- Remove entries from the Table of Contents whose titles match the specified
regular expression. Matching entries and all their children are
removed.
