Essentially the viewer in calibre only views ePubs. All other formats are converted to that basic structure before being presented in the calibre viewer. The viewer though can not view any book that uses DRM.

Ummm sorry if I was misunderstood in my question or my thanks for the answer....I just wanted to know if Calibre reads epubs..Nothing sinister, or disrespectful...Once I was told that it does, I delved into it further and found all book types were actually checked off in the viewer settings except the epub which was not readily visible until i scrolled to see it, but wouldn't have known to look unless I knew if it read them or not....
