You can find the book files in the calibre library directory. If you select a book in calibre and hit the 'o' key (in windows at least) it will open the directory for you.
The
plugin is integrated with calibre, but FFDL also has a
command line Python version and a
web service (in fact, those pre-date the plugin version by a couple years). You can download stories using those without using calibre at all.
The FFDL plugin can also be called from command line, same as the Python CLI. Look at the
first post in the thread and read the 'Command Line Interface(CLI)' section.
(FYI, the FFDL plugin doesn't do 'conversion' as such. It downloads HTML from the sites and generates epub (or other output formats) directly. It can then launch calibre's conversion process for you.)
