  1. Original have different no. and types of files like .apnx , .azw , .phl
  2. then it's deDRMed (it may vary) to .awz, .jpg, .opf
  3. then DRMed AWZ is unpacked to folder
  4. then that folder is converted to pdf or epub (KF8 to ePub)

I always keep my originals. I did a large batch conversion from .mobi to .epub back in the day and there were some formatting issues on quite a few of the converted books. Always nice to have the originals on hand in case something goes wrong, especially considering the miniscule file size
