Any of them I need to download from external source?
You don't need any if you're buying from Kobo. But if you do happen to want to borrow or buy ePubs then you'll need Calibre and the Kobo touch extended driver found on this forum here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=211135

The reason you'll want this driver is that it converts ePubs to kepubs on the fly when you upload books to the reader from Calibre. And the reason you'll want to do that is not because of page turns, it's because you'll likely want to zoom in to pictures/illustrations in your books, and you can't do this with ePubs on a Kobo. (Well, at least last time I checked!). I'd say this was the key thing you need in Calibre for a Kobo.
