Bug Description
I am using Calibre version 2.40 64bit on Win10 with Kobo Glo HD 3.17.3.
I face an issue with sorting books after converting.
I use book-converting out of the box with some settings in layout section only. This works well as all books looks similar on the reader after that. The fields Titel and Titel-Sort are having same content.
I use kobo utility and extended feature to get kepub which also works fine.
I do not use plugboard.
When I add books to Calibre and load them to the Reader they are sorted by Titel as expected (same sorting in Calibre and the Reader as per attached screen_Calibre). It is German but alphabet is the same.
BUT
when I add books to Calibre, CONVERT them and load them to the Reader they are sorted different on the Reader (on the Reader as attached screen_Reader while Calibre is unchanged). The Article (German Der Die Das while english is The) is not used for sorting.
My concern is:
Something is happening during conversion which leads the reader to wrong sorting.
btw: it seems that Kobo Glo HD with 3.17.3 use titel instead of titel_sort but that should not matter for the issue above which is related to before/after converting.
Changing the component for this bug.
