I use VBS script that calls calibredb -export to copy my epubs from the real Calibre database to a 'working' folder. Using the -template option, I can format the file name to be Author-Title-Series, etc. (Alexandre Dumas-Three Musketeers, The.epub)

I put them into a single folder without any additional files

Code:
calibredb  export --all --dont-save-cover --dont-write-opf --format epub --single-dir --template "{authors}-{series}{series_index:0>2s|[|]-}{title}" --to-dir D:\Working
