Regarding your PM...

Assuming you do not need the books in the library GUI, you can use the following batch file to search the current folder (the folder you stick the batch file in) and convert all EPUBs to PDF:

Code:
del conversion.log
for /r %%I in ("*.epub) do (
    echo ******************************* >> conversion.log
    echo Converting "%~dpnI.epub" to PDF >> conversion.log
    ebook-convert "%~dpnI.epub" "%~dpnI.pdf" >> conversion.log
)
It will use the default conversion settings, exactly as though you used the "traditional" way in the library, but without any of the customizations the conversion dialog offers.

You can duplicate the effects of anything in the calibre conversion dialog using the command-line options detailed here: http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/gene...k-convert.html

Change
Code:
ebook-convert "%~dpnI.epub" "%~dpnI.pdf" >> conversion.log
to
Code:
ebook-convert "%~dpnI.epub" "%~dpnI.pdf" [options go here] >> conversion.log
