My better half had a Kindle for Christmas and i have been lent a Sony 700.

I have been pointed to the Calibre program that looks excellent. I have not had time to work with it much but i was trying to work out how to change the "Input" file type? The drop down box in the top left hand corner only shows "Epub" as selected when the program was installed, and i expected to see mutiple formats in the drop down.
Did i do something wrong on install? I am assuming that there is a way of changing in "input" format?

Any assistance greatfully received

Regards
Steve
Convert: Left side
Maybe you only have an existing EPUB format for that book to convert FROM.

If you have multiple formats available, the the list gives you the option of overriding the preferred (possible best) source.
Note: once you have converted a book, Calibre defaults the conversion to the last used (and used options). There is a reset button near the button, that can be used to set it to use the 'Current' Calibre defaults' (which you may have adjusted to taste.
