Hi Calibre-Community,
I have a question about using the ebook-convert program from calibre in a shell script – as I am a total noob to shell scrips, maybe someone here can help me? :help: I am eager to learn and would be very thankful!
So I am using hazel on a mac to automate certain folders. Within one of the folders I want to have an automatic conversion from ePub to pdf. I stumbled over a very useful shell script in the internet, which can be used directly in hazel:
https://jake.ch/2013/03/03/hazelbooks/
This works pretty well: it makes a pdf and puts it in a "convert" folder. But now I want to tweak the PDF to a certain size, add page numbers, set margins etc...
So I found the commands for the ebook-convert app from calibre:
https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/gen...output-options
But how can I include for example
to the shell script above? And how do I set the hight and the width?
:thanks:
