Hi Joe,

Another way to convert ODF to ebooks would be using Pincette ODF to ePub
(http://www.pincette.biz/odftoepub/index.xhtml), presented at the Brussels
plugfest.

It is a commercial product however, so it may or may not fit your purposes...


Best regards

Bart

Subject: [odf-discuss] odfpy internal links

Hi there!

I have a query about odfpy that I hope someone here might be able to help with.
Does odfpy support extracting of document bookmarks and headings and the cross-references to those? I.e. internal links?

I use Calibre to create ebooks, which apparently uses odfpy for ODT conversion. Currently, internal links are not preserved (they just become normal text in the case of bookmark links and non-working links in the case of header links) and I'm told that's a limitation of odfpy. If that's true, how can it be fixed?

The pressing reason I want to have this functionality is so that the links in tables of contents and indexes function, and also so 'see pages xx - xx' with bookmark links function. This is pretty important for me, and I'd guess a lot of folks converting books from OpenOffice. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Regards,
Joe
