I really wasn't asking for any change to the way the plugin works, I just wondered if it was possible to locate a copy of the kepubified book in temporary files or similar (though thinking about it as conversion is triggered by transfer to the device and any attempt to communicate with it fails after the initial synch that wouldn't work). At present I have no way of putting kepub versions of books onto my Glo as it looks like the 2.50 update has some low-level incompatibility with the Kobo driver itself. I can copy standard epubs without using Calibre so having access to a kepub versions would have been useful as a work-round. I'm surprised no-one else has hit this problem -it's pretty fundamental to the interaction between Calibre and the Kobo. I think I need to investigate things like my AV software (AVG) to see if that is why I'm suffering and no-one else seems to be.
