zoran, he didn't buy the book in ANY format. That's the problem. The three 'formats' for Kobo books are epub (a file you can download and do as you please with like any normal file), web (no file to sync or download---you read it off the website) or mobile (no file to download, but if you sync it, it embeds the book into the built-in SQL database which powers the Kobo. There is no way to get it off there because it is basically hard-wired into the firmware at that point. There is no file you can see or manipulate). So the book he bought had the latter two options but no epub. Therefore there is no format he bought it in and no file to work with. There is only reading it off the website or using the Kobo desktop software to embed the book into the SQL engine so he can read it on the device.
