It's a bit of a catch-22... you have to know it's a Topaz book, in order to change the file extension, so Calibre can determine it's a Topaz book (and thus use the Topaz metadata reader plugin).
Changing the extension and then importing into Calibre with plugins does not remove the DRM though, correct?
