bookfere/Ebook-Translator-Calibre-Plugin

What it solves

This plugin solves the problem of reading ebooks in languages you don't understand by allowing you to translate entire books into your preferred language directly within the Calibre ebook management software.

How it works

It integrates with various translation engines to process ebook content. Users can choose between an "Advanced Mode" for more control or a "Batch Mode" for translating multiple books at once. It supports a wide range of formats (48 input and 20 output formats) and can cache translated content to prevent data loss during network interruptions.

Who it’s for

Readers who use Calibre to manage their ebook libraries and want to translate their collection into different languages using AI-powered translation services.

Highlights

• Multiple engine support: Works with Google Translate, ChatGPT, Gemini, and DeepL, as well as custom engines.
• Broad format compatibility: Supports nearly all formats Calibre supports, plus .srt files.
• Efficient processing: Translates multiple books simultaneously and caches progress to avoid re-translating after failures.
• Flexible output: Translated books can be saved directly to the Calibre library or a specific folder.
