In the Behavior section, the 'Preferred input format order' list has the following formats at top:
EPUB
AZW3
MOBI
PDF

The single 'Preferred output format' is set to AZW3.

When I have a book that has both PDF and EPUB formats, I was expecting the EPUB to be converted to AZW3 and sent to the device. Instead, I got the PDF.

Does there need to be a 'Preferred output format' list as well?
The Device driver (configure is a right-click option when connected) has that list. Note If the device driver indicates support (a tick), the format passes without (the offer of) auto-conversion.

There is also a tweak to LIMIT the output format list choices. (eg EPUB,AZW3)
