The Calibre plugin only creates a htmlz file - if you use the standalone plugin for Topaz there are actually two output options - one is htmlz, just like Calibre, but the other is SVG - the SVG option basically gives you a pdf-like file made up exclusively of SVG. It's a true 'backup' of the topaz file, but it's a one-way backup - you could use the SVG to convert to PDF (or even an ePub that iBooks could render), but you can't convert it back to Topaz.

What's nice about the SVG export option is it looks exactly like the printed book, as this was the whole point of Topaz - emulate the printed book exactly, but also allow reflow. That said, I don't think a lot of people use that option, so it's limited in a few ways, give it a try and see if you like it.
