I have a book in my Kobo library that I want to put in Calibre. When I try to download it on my computer or phone, all that downloads is a URLLink.acsm file. Anyone know what's going on?

Hey! I think I'm here suuuuper late, but as far as I'm aware, any book on Kobo that has DRM applied to it will give you that file. It requires adobe digital editions or something to access. If it doesn't have DRM it should hand you an epub. You can still get it by using Kobo's desktop app and using Obok in Calibre. I got that to work even using the desktop app running through a compatibility layer on Linux. I hope that helps! Sorry it took a month for anyone to respond!
