My thoughts, as well. Besides... I believe calibre's apnx files are actually created "on the fly" when sending books to a device.

Also, one question: Is there any real limit on image size or resolution in epubs? In other words, can we simply unpack the HDImages and replace the smaller kindlegen generated images on the fly. That will give the "best" image for later use in any conversion.


If so, users can convert with an epub to epub conversion in Calibre if they need to downsample the images for their particular epub device.
I know of no "official" ePub image size limit. I do know of devices/apps that have limits. Any chance it could be (hopefully somewhat easily) made a user-choice?

"Use HD images whenever present?"

I've come to realize that many use the KindleUnpack plugin precisely because they want to avoid having to do a calibre epub to epub conversion.
