Tick away (the compatibility issue is on you)

Fwiw this is the device drive currently being used for this device, which is why I sent you via the device icon.
D-oh! I re-read what you wrote (above) regarding "Configure the Device" and found the dialogue where I could enable EPUB as a choice. Then, in the "Send..." dialogue, I saw EPUB which I selected and *presto* the file transfer took about a second and the file ended up in the "documents" folder (with no conversion as it was already EPUB). That works exactly as I wished. I added that folder to the Boox app as a "shelf" and the book was available to open and read in that app. I'll disable all the formats I won't use so I don't accidentally choose any of those.

I knew there was a solution and a friendly soul here on Mobileread would help me find it.

Thank you for helping me get this accomplished!
