## USAGE
### Important tips:
* Use high quality source files. **This little detail have a major impact on the final result.**
* Read tooltip of _High/Ultra quality_ option. There are many important informations there.
* When converting images smaller than device resolution remember to enable upscaling.
* Panel View (auto zooming every part of page) can be disabled directly on Kindle. There is no KCC option to do that.
* Check our [wiki](https://github.com/ciromattia/kcc/wiki/Other-devices) for a list of tested Non-Kindle E-Readers.
* The first image found will be set as the comic's cover.
* All files/directories will be added to EPUB in alphabetical order.
* Using high/ultra quality output option with Kindle Fire HD/HDX in most cases is just waste of space.
* ComicRack metadata will be parsed only if they are saved in *ComicInfo.xml* file.
### Calibre:
* Calibre can be used to upload files created by KCC.
* Uploading KCC output with Calibre will remove *Personal* tag from cover.
* **Don't convert files created by KCC with Calibre!** Any conversion process will corrupt the file!
* Don't use Calibre reader to preview files created by KCC. It can't parse them correctly.
### GUI
Should be pretty self-explanatory. All options have detailed informations in tooltips.
After completed conversion you should find ready file alongside the original input file (same directory).
Please check [our wiki](https://github.com/ciromattia/kcc/wiki/) for more details.
### Standalone `comic2ebook.py` usage:
