Also: what about mobi, pdf and so forth?
Awaiting your kind reply,

My procedure is basically 3 steps.
1. Edit the metadata, covers, etc.
2. Use Modify Epub to update the metadata and covers internal to the epub.
3. Send the books to my Kobo. Safely eject and let the books process.
If your renamed files are still showing as on device in calibre, you will need to remove them (calibre, remove books, remove matching books from device). Basically, if you send the new version and calibre shows 2 books on device, time to nuke the old copies.
4. Connect and update metadata to send the series data.
Mobi support on the Kobo ereaders is pretty primitive as the format supported is from before Amazon purchasing Mobipocket. PDF works but you really need a bigger display, more CPU, more RAM, etc. Other formats have very limited metadata or no metadata standard.
