Convert without adding to library?
When I just have to convert a PDF to ePub, it needs to be added to library. Is there any way to convert it using calibre's converter without adding it to library? (Because it takes a while to add a file; which I don't want to keep in my library.)

Addition to context menu in explorer is highly required.

You can use the ebook-convert.exe command line tool to convert without adding to the library.

If you want to convert without adding to the Calibre library then you have to do it at the command line level without using the Calibre GUI. This is covered in the Calibre User Guide.
