UPDATE: SOLVED - see post #10.

Is it possible to convert and save to disk on ONE STEP?

Problem/Use:
I prefer to store most of my books in a single format -epub. This format typically is the smallest file size and thus uses less storage space. With a LOT of entries, this is the best thing for me. HOWEVER, I want to send some books to my Persona Docs as mobi's for use in my Kindle also.

So far, I find I have to:
1- convert to mobi. Then,
2- Save to Disk (which also modifies the metadata via plugboards). Then,
3- I email the files. Then,
4- I go back and delete the mobi noting in Calibre that it is available via my Kindle personal docs (which I will eventually delete at some point).

This is something I'm just beginning to do. It does not apply to all books, but I'm finding it a little tedious to do all the steps.

So, is there a way to do a straight Save to Disk/Convert simultaneously to a format that isn't already there?

If not, @Kovid, could this option be created easily, particularly in a manner that is one step and doesn't need modification from the saved conversion preferences other than choosing a new format?
