That sounds as if you are downloading epub format with or without DRM. To convert these to kepub format involves some massaging of the books contents such as wrapping Kobo's spans around each sentence. You can rename them to .kepub.epub and your Kobo ereader will open them with the ACCESS renderer but quite a few kepub features will not work.
