Maybe I don't recall but I thought that the new plugin tools for Calibre were able to handle Topaz books directly. My problem or maybe multiple problems are that my c: drive failed. I had Vista Home Premium 32 bit. The repair joint appears to have "fixed" me with 64 bit. So I'm not sure if that may be affecting things.

But I dragged a topaz book to Calibre. It added and recognized the format as azw1. Metadata shows. But when I attempt to convert it says "could not convert ... no suitable source found."

I then tried the separate topaz tools. Which worked on my netbook. I try step 1 and I get "success" but nothing is created in the output directory. I try step 2 and it also says success but nothing results which is not surprising since there really was NO input file. I know that python has 32 and 64 bit versions and am wondering if that may be fouling this up.

I know we can't discuss too much but...

Thanks in advance
