Hi everyone.

I searched for the answer to this but couldn't find anything definitive. Please excuse me if it has already been answered.

Quick question. I have all the books in my calibre library in EPUB format. My son-in-law has a kindle and he asked me about a book in my library that he wants to read.

If he logs into the calibre server, and selects the book, he will only see that the epub format exists.

Is there any way that when he clicks on download, he can ask that a conversion be made from the EPUB format to MOBI before he downloads the book on his kindle? Can calibre be set up to do this automatically?

Thanks in advance.
