2) what formats exist (this assumes the reason to convert was LACK of the desired format )

What none of this shows: was what format YOU used (master) to convert to others ( or if you even did do a convert in order to get other formats)
I assume the reason you are 'converting' is that you want Format X
set a search or make a filter:
Code:
Not formats:EPUB
Now your list shows the candidates for conversion TO...
By metadata viewer I presume you mean the edit metadata window. In the upper right-hand corner of that window it shows the available formats. If I hover over a format, a last modified date is displayed.

I have a Kindle and convert the books from whatever format to mobi, so I won't be using the T option, at least I don't forsee a use for it.
