I personally use only the conversion function and save everything to my own choice of directory, which is additional to Calibre's database and handle the file transfer myself.
I tried this, but could find nothing to specificy or show the file name and extension of where it was going. Only a directory.

My goal too is to use only the conversion function, but it is hard since Calibre does not show the file name (which includes title and author) and instead shows random character strings in the "Title" and "Author' columns. This makes it impossible to know which book I am looking at.
