Jobs are tasks that run in a separate process, they include converting ebooks and talking to your reader device. You can click on the jobs panel to access the list of jobs. Once a job has completed, by double-clicking it in the list, you can see a detailed log from that job. This is useful to debug jobs that may not have completed successfully. +Keyboard Shortcuts +--------------------- + +Calibre has several keyboard shortcuts to save you time and mouse movement.
