Some Kindle books, such as comics and print replica, use fixed-layout (pre-formatted pages) which is not supported by calibre for conversion. Using the command line interface (CLI) of the KFX Input plugin for conversion will bypass calibre's conversion. Documentation of the CLI can be found in The first post of the KFX Input plugin thread.

The result may have limited usefulness. It is going to be a fixed-layout EPUB containing Kindle-specific markup.
