calibre 0.7.51 - Complete e-library software.. (Free)

calibre is a one stop solution to all your e-book needs. It is free, open source and cross-platform in design and works well on Linux, OS X and Windows. calibre is meant to be a complete e-library solution and thus includes library management, format conversion, news feeds to ebook conversion, as well as e-book reader sync features and an integrated e-book viewer.
Version 0.7.51:

- This can be turned off via an option under Structure Detection, in case it removes margins that should have been kept.
