If I have a Fictionwise multiformat book and I want to download more than one format rather than just converting between them, I know I can drop a new format into the folder in Calibre's directory. But will that apply the metadata too? I am worried because I have LRF files and want to put mobipocket versions on the Kindle and I don't want them showing up with weird file names. If I have correctly set the title and author on the LRF file and I put a mobi version in there with it, will it transfer to the Kindle with the correct author and title?
