Different Language?

I find it very beautiful what you have created, is it also possible to create stories in other languages like Dutch? If so, how can I do this? Thank you very much.

Thanks! You can modify each of the prompts to ask them to write in Dutch.

Hi, thnxz for the swift reply. I did that, but it generates only one chapter in Dutch, the rest in English

# Set metadata
book.set_identifier('id123456')
book.set_title(title)
**book.set_language('nl')**
book.add_author(author)

# Set metadata
book.set_identifier('id123456')
book.set_title(title)
**book.set_language('nl')**
book.add_author(author)

Hi Dsandua, I did that also, in the metadata i changed it to NL i am testing now that i change all the prompts into Dutch, maybe that will help, thanx for your advise

EbookLib library itself is not capable of translating text. It's a library for handling e-books, not for translating text. The function book.set_language('nl') simply allows you to define a metadata for the book, as with the author... There's no choice but to go through googletrans, for example, to translate the content that will then be sent to EbookLib.

I allready found a way to translate the text. 1st i convert the epub to pdf, then i go to https://www.deepl.com/translator/files ad the entire pdf will be translated, after that i change it back to epub translation is good

@snip3r009 Using the DeepL API?

[snip3r009]

No, i simple convert the epub to pdf, then i go to https://www.deepl.com/translator/files and upload the pdf and let Deepl translate it for me. I dont know if it will work with Deepl api

DeepL API

It works manually of course, but it would be better on automatic like the reste of the eBook 😉

At the moment, I'm working on improving the content of the chapters, which I find rather poor. Then I'll come back to the translation part, which is a detail if the quality of the book isn't there.

Yes, you are right, the chapter content is too brief and limited; it should have more substance. You can easily finish reading a chapter in no time at all. If it was chatgpt-4, then it can create more chapters and more content, i think
