While that works for saving to any EXTERNAL of the Library, you may not reap the other benefits of Calibres on the fly transfer.
BTW this has been there forever

Thanks a lot for this, this is actually a very workable solution. Not perfect (that would have been to copy a second format alongside the first), but since I don't copy books every day, this is absolutely ok.
And I have absolutely no idea why I never realized that this functionality exists (I've been using calibre for ages). I had removed the "Save to Disk" icon from the toolbar at some time (without even remembering i.e., very, very long ago), probably in an effort to declutter everything.
Thanks again for the pointer.
