# Calibre ACSM plugin
|
|
|
|
This is a Calibre plugin that allows you to turn ACSM files into EPUBs without the need for ADE.
|
|
It is a full Python reimplementation of libgourou by Grégory Soutadé (http://indefero.soutade.fr/p/libgourou/).
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
1. Download the plugin and import it into Calibre
|
|
2. Open the plugin settings, it should say "Not authorized for any ADE ID"
|
|
3. Click the "Link to ADE account" button
|
|
4. Enter your AdobeID and password, then wait a couple seconds for the success message.
|
|
5. The settings window should now say "Authorized with ADE ID X on device Y".
|
|
6. Click the "Export account activation data" and "Export account encryption key" buttons to export / backup your keys. Do not skip this step. The first file (ZIP) can be used to re-authorize Calibre after a reset / reinstall without using up one of your Adobe authorizations. The second file (DER) can be imported into DeDRM.
|
|
7. If needed (new AdobeID), import the DER file into the DeDRM plugin.
|
|
8. Download an EPUB ACSM file from Adobe's test library and see if you can import it into Calibre: https://www.adobe.com/de/solutions/ebook/digital-editions/sample-ebook-library.html
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT:
|
|
|
|
- I would suggest creating a new dummy AdobeID to use for Calibre so just in case Adobe detects this and bans you, you don't lose your main AdobeID.
|
|
- Combined with that I suggest importing the DER file into the DeDRM plugin to make sure that losing your AdobeID doesn't also mean you'll lose access to all your eBooks.
|
|
- This plugin doesn't yet work with PDFs. Importing an ACSM file for a PDF book will just result in the ACSM file being imported, it won't be converted into a PDF.
|
|
- This software is not approved by Adobe. I am not responsible if Adobe detects that you're using nonstandard software and bans your account. Do not complain to me if Adobe bans your main ADE account - you have been warned.
|

## To-Do list for the future?
|
|
|
|
There's a bunch of features that could still be added, but most of them aren't implemented in libgourou either, so I don't know if or when I'll be able to add these:
|
|
|
|
- Support for anonymous Adobe IDs
|
|
- Support for un-authorizing a machine
|
|
- Support to re-import a backed-up authorization after a reinstallation (right now you can only do that manually)
|
|
- Support for PDFs
|
|
- Support for returning loan books
|
|
- ...
