Despite what I posted earlier, books in KFX format can have a description field but it is not always present. If the book being imported has a description this plugin will pass it along as part of the metadata when adding a new book to calibre. As far as I know metadata is not updated if you are adding a format to an existing book entry in calibre.

I am not sure why it is working in one case but not another. I will look into it further. If you can provide the ASIN of a book that provides a description when imported from a PW2 but not K4PC that would be helpful.
