## Transfer Books to a Device
|
||||
|
||||
To transfer books to a device connect a e-reader to the computer.
|
||||
After a while calibre should recognize the device which will be apparent by the appearance of
|
||||
additional buttons on the top menu like the `Send to device`- and the `Device`-Button.
|
||||
First make sure only the formats you want will be transfered.
|
||||
This can be done by selecting `Device`, `File formats` and checking the formats as needed.
|
||||
Afterwards select the books and press `Send to device` to start the process of transfering the
|
||||
devices.
|
||||
Alternatively only specific formats of the books can be send to the device by selecting
|
||||
`Send specific format to` and `Main memory` under the `Send to device` menu.
|
||||
If there are books that contain series metadata make sure to disconnect the e-reader once and
|
||||
reconnect it.
|
||||
Afterwards select `Update cached metadata on device` under `Device` to update the metadata
|
||||
including the series.
|
||||
Finally disconnect the device.
|
||||
|
||||
## KEPUB Format
|
||||
|
||||
The `.kepub` format is a format that is similar to a normal epub but has some performance
|
||||
improvements for Kobo devices.
|
||||
It is recommended to convert `.mobi` and `.epub` files to a `.kepub` file before
|
||||
[transfering it to a Kobo device](#transfer-books-to-a-device).
|
||||
For this the Plugin `KePub Output` by Joel Goguen [can be added](#adding-a-plugin).
|
||||
Afterwards books can be converted the normal way, but now the output format `.kepub` is available.
