Is this a limitation of the file format?
No, this should not be happening. The only way you should get a partial conversion if your computer runs out of memory and the conversion fails to finish. Typically in that case the output file will never be created.

Is there a point in the Calibre-Options I overlooked - or something else?
I would really appreciate your help, since I would like to read the whole books.
If someone added an option to only convert part of a document and discard the rest I will have a very unfriendly chat with them...

Please open a ticket at https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre . Attach the file you are having trouble converting. Also, do a conversion and attach the conversion log. Bottom right of the window, where it says jobs, click it. select the job, click details.

This way I can look into what's happening, it's easier to track issues using the bug tracker than here, and others can search for the issue if they run into it.
