The whole thing works brilliantly. The app has a "save to ePub" command, which works directly, and a "save to Mobipocket" command, which appears to work directly but actually creates a modified ePub file and runs it through mobigen.exe.

The user has to download mobigen.exe and copy it into our program folder because the Mobigen people won't let it be redistributed directly.

By the way, timings and file sizes on a 217KB ePub file were:

Mobigen (normal) - 8 seconds for a 394KB .mobi file.
Mobigen (high) - 25 seconds for a 142KB .mobi file.
Calibre - 100 seconds for a 527KB .mobi file.
