*Comments Cleaner* is a small plugin that clean comments from superfluous and unwanted CSS rules (background-color, text color, font-family, among other things), but keeps the basic elements (italic, bold).
The plugin will also try to convert plain-text comments.
The plugin has the following options:
* Keep or remove Hyperlinks
* Weights management
* Round the value to the hundred (only below Calibre 6)
* Round to Bold
* Remove Strikethrough, Underline and Italic
* Remove the bold if all paragraphes are it
* Remove the italic if all paragraphes are it
* Headings management
* Converte to a paragraph
* Converte to a paragraph but keep the bold
* Text alignment
* Automatic justification
* Force justification
* Remove alignment
* Specific alignment for lists
* Keep or Delete the ID and CLASS attributs
* Remove all formatting (NO MERCY!!)
* Try a conversion from Mardown format (the key word is TRY)
* Remove Multiple Line Return
and create a new paragraph instead
* Convert 'Line Return' into Paragraph or Space
* Management of empty paragraphs
* Removing images
* Ability to specify others CSS rules to keep in addition to the basic CSS rule
* Possibility to apply the cleaning to others custom HTML columns
* Support of Category Notes
Basic CSS rules keep by default:
```
text-align
font-weight
font-style
text-decoration
```
**Installation**
Open *Preferences -> Plugins -> Get new plugins* and install the "Comments Cleaner" plugin.
You may also download the attached zip file and install the plugin manually, then restart calibre as described in the [Introduction to plugins thread](https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=118680")
The plugin works for Calibre 5 and later.

Note for those who wish to provide a translation:
I am *French*! Although for obvious reasons, the default language of the plugin is English, keep in mind that already a translation.
