I would like to retain the original pdf along with the optimized one but calibre allows only one pdf to be stored for a book. Is there a way I can keep 2 differently formatted pdfs for the same book?
As you obviously know only one of any format is allowed in the same <book>, but duplicate <books> are allowed. You could have a couple Virtual Libraries - Originals and K2Opt.
