How to Add TONFA Stories to calibre
To add a story from TONFA: The Original Naruto Fanfic Archive to calibre, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and import the file into your calibre library. Both tools are free, and WP Downloader runs in your browser without anything to install.
Download the story as an EPUB
Find the story on narutofic.org. A TONFA story address looks like this:
http://www.narutofic.org/viewstory.php?sid=1234Copy the story address and open the TONFA downloader. Paste the link into the box. WP Downloader will detect the archive.
Choose EPUB as the output format. EPUB downloads are free for everyone, and you can add the finished file directly to calibre. You can also choose whether to include the story’s images.
WP Downloader downloads the complete story from TONFA. It cannot download a single chapter or a list from this archive.
You do not need to sign in for publicly accessible stories. Signing in with your TONFA account can give WP Downloader access to members-only stories that the account can read. Your credentials are used only to fetch the story you requested. The tool cannot bypass members-only access, age restrictions, or other limits on your account.
See the TONFA download guide for more help with downloading the file.
Add the EPUB to calibre
calibre is a free e-book manager for Windows, macOS, and Linux. After the EPUB finishes downloading, save it somewhere easy to find, such as your downloads folder.
To add it to your library:
- Open calibre on your computer.
- Select Add books.
- Find the EPUB you downloaded from WP Downloader.
- Select the file.
The story will appear with the other books in your calibre library. You can open it in calibre’s e-book viewer and read it offline.
Edit the metadata and cover
calibre lets you edit the story’s metadata and cover after importing it. These details can make a large fanfiction library easier to browse.
Using consistent titles and author names can help you find stories later, especially if your library contains works from several fiction archives. You can also replace the cover to make the story easier to recognize.
These changes only affect the copy in your calibre library. They do not alter the original story on TONFA.
Convert the EPUB to another format
WP Downloader creates EPUB files. It can also create PDF files after a free Discord sign-in. It does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files.
If you need another e-book format, add the EPUB to calibre and use its conversion tool. calibre can convert EPUB files to formats such as AZW3, MOBI, and PDF.
Keep the original EPUB in your library if you expect to convert the story again for another e-reader or app.
Send the story to an e-reader over USB
calibre can transfer books to a connected e-reader over USB. Connect the device to your computer, select the story in calibre, and send it to the device.
The format you need depends on your e-reader. For a Kindle, follow the TONFA Kindle guide. Kobo readers can use EPUB files; the TONFA Kobo guide explains that process.
You can also read the EPUB on your computer with calibre’s e-book viewer.
Use Read aloud in calibre
To listen to the story, open it in calibre’s e-book viewer and select Read aloud. The viewer can read the EPUB stored in your library while you are offline.
Get a newer copy when chapters are added
WP Downloader cannot add new chapters to an EPUB you already downloaded. When a TONFA story is updated, paste its link into the downloader again and download the complete story as a new EPUB.
Add the new file to calibre, then edit its metadata and cover if needed to keep them consistent with the rest of your library.
