Hi,

I want to write a plugin based on FileTypePlugin which implements postimport(), but I noticed that the method is only executed if I add a new ebook to Calibre (i.e. drag and drop a file), but not when I convert an existing ebook into a new format.

Is there any way to have Calibre run the method also in this case?
