I guess I was not really clear on what I said originally. By download I mean connecting to the Calibre web server locally with the Kindle and downloading the newspaper or document for reading.

If you download via USB it will do the conversion for you as selected for your device. What I want to be able to do is do that conversion as the files are downloaded from the source as part of the scheduled download process. It would be nice to have an option in the scheduler to run the conversion process upon download. Then I can access the files with the kindle without having to manually convert them back at the server.

I suspect there is a recipe way to do this. Does anyone have an example?
