If you want to send a compatible format other than default, e.g. Sony format, in that case select "specific format" and then LTR.

Hope it helps.
Apparently yes, Calibre is smarter than I am *grin*. But you have the scenario backwards. What I am trying to ask (and evidently doing a pretty poor job of it), is if Calibre will send a format that is not supported to the Reader (ie: lit). In other words: If I have a book in two formats, epub and lit, and I hit "send to device", will Calibre ONLY send the epub, but NOT the lit file?
