I bought the Michael w Lucas book Dear Abyss through the Kickstarter. When it arrived in my email inbox, Bookfunnel didn’t have an option to download it as PDF. It did, however, have an EPUB option.
Luckily, I know how to do the conversion. It took me a minute or two to remember, so this time I’m writing it down.
-
Install Calibre with
sudo apt install calibre. -
Run Calibre from the command line
calibre. -
Click the “Add books” button.
. -
Select the ePub file.
-
Click the “Convert books” button.
-
Change the Output format to PDF in the dialog that pops up.
-
Click “OK”.
-
Calibre spins for a bit and then deposits the PDF in the library directory. In my case that was ”~/Calibre Library/(author)/(title) (n)”, where n is the number of the book in the library.
And there you go — next time I’ll remember this.
