Hi.

You can convert without installing the command line. But I have some troubles 
with it. I can not figure out how to convert a folder of books.

I am only removing DRM because of accessibility, I do not like to do it, but on 
the other hand should I when scan the books, use a lot of time, and not always 
get the result I would like.

Best regards Annie.
Best regards Annie.
