-
- <p class="calibre2">The installation processes starts by <a href="http://calibre-ebook.com/download">downloading</a> the installer for your
- operating system. Run the installer. When it finishes, launch calibre. You
- will now be greeted with a welcome wizard, which will help you initially
- configure calibre. The first page of the wizard allows you to change the
- storage location for your e-books.</p>
-
- <p class="calibre2">If this is your first time using calibre, the storage location should not
- be an existing e-book collection, but a new directory location for calibre's
- exclusive use. Calibre offers import functionality for existing collections.
- Calibre manages the e-books you give it in its own way. Think of the storage
- location directory as a black box. You don't do anything with it ΓÇô it manages
- the contents of the storage location directory for you. If you have used
- calibre in the past and are installing a new version, or have moved your
- library, then it's okay to indicate an existing calibre library.</p>
-
- <p class="calibre2">Click 'next' to be presented with an e-book reader selection. If your
- device is not listed, or if you intend to use more than one e-book reader
- don't panic ΓÇô just choose 'default'. This selection provides some conversion
- optimization for formats requiring fixed sizes. Click 'next' and then
- 'finish'.</p>
-
- <p class="calibre2">Congratulations, you've successfully installed and configured calibre! If
- at any time you want to run the welcome wizard again, click the downward
- facing arrow to the right of the Preferences button (looks like a hammer) in
- the top tool bar, then select 'Run welcome wizard'.</p>
