1. Add a "type file" column to the main reader. I would like to be able to sort between epubs and pdfs
2. Change the location of where imported files reside
3. Change the default location of where converted books reside.

I searched the manual and could not find anything to do these things. Did I miss something? Can anyone help? Thanks!!

1. You can enter format:epub or format:pdf in the search box. If you want to see the file type in a custom column, see Manichean's post at Calibre - show format. Oddly, the number one hit for a Google search on "calibre create column for file type" (without the quotes).
2. You can create a library at any location you choose.
3. Want to change the library structure? See Want to change folder structure or file names in the Calibre library?.
