I'm new to the Kobo world and am enjoying my Forma very much.

I'm side loading most of my books from my Calibre library of ePubs.

I've settled on not explicitly converting to kepub and thereby avoiding keeping multiple formats in Calibre, and instead am letting KoboTouchExtended convert to kepub during the process of sending to the Forma.

This is the only extra Kobo specific plugin I've installed apart from Kobo Utilities.

This seems to be working well for me.

In the event that I actually wanted to modify the ePub, I'm guessing I can do an ePub to ePub conversion in Calibre, or use the Modify ePub plugin OR edit the ePub directly itself.

Does this all sound like a reasonable approach to working with kepubs and my Forma?

Does KoboTouchExtended use any of the Calibre settings for conversion

Also, do I need to explicitly disable the Kobo Touch plugin for the Extended plugin to operate properly?
