In using Calibre, do I NEED to edit the metadata myself? and if so just what part, using Calibre I see no where to edit anything that resembles the EBOK (?) setting, or does the actual conversion to mobi MAKE the edit for you?

And as such does that imply that the item now becomes a 'book' rather than a personal document

I am probably at the stage that having done it so many times, I have probably confused the hell out of myself LoL

If you go to Preferences\Output Options, then click on Mobi on the left side, you will then be able to remove the [PDOC] tag and put in the [EBOK] tag.

I always click on 'edit metadata' and then download metadata, so I don't know if conversion alone will add the necessary tags that allow it to sync.
