All 26 "topaz" books were initially downloaded on my k3. Yesterday I downloaded the archived versions to my win-pc. They all have the same extension as everything else - azw. I looked into each with a file viewer and saw the identifier at the beginning of the file. None had READABLE metadata in the viewer.
I renamed all of them to azw1. MOST (except 2) were then dragged back into calibre and it added them based on (obviously hidden non-human readable) metadata.
Rather than immediately wade through the calibre forum, does anyone know if the programmer might be addressing the files that while named xxxx.azw are actually topaz? Obviously this would slow down the parsing if he had to look at the first 4 characters to determine, ah, Topaz, then then treat them like topaz to get at the metadata.
Great discussion if we are not treading too far into forbidden topics or disclosures.
