KCC expects you to start with a stack of images. I don't have that, yet. I have a fixed layout KF8 file. The images in there will not require any optimizing or resizing.

Calibre will convert AZW3 to PDF, or FXL ePub. I would like a CBZ/CBR as well, so I can figure out which works best with PocketBook software.

But it appears there is no calibre/plugin feature to extract the images from the AZW3 file (or ePub etc) and output CBZ from them. It's not difficult to do this manually (e.g. using calibre ebook-edit), so not clear why calibre or some plugin could not do this as well.

I just wanted to verify that I was not missing anything.
