That’s news to me. I sent in a PDF a couple days ago and my file came back in AZW within minutes. I hope they didn’t turn it off because it was a slick feature.

I may be wrong, but the conversion (free) from pdf to azw may no longer be working. Sent in a bunch of files this morning and they came back as the same pdf format. Maybe they shut it off once PDF support was added to the devices?

On DX2, PDF is essentially useless, without ability to zoom in. I’ll try Mobi.

I do and it’s really easy, you have to do it in 2 steps, first it VERY important that you install the publisher edition.
Once you do that, then the first step is to convert the select the PDF or Word to HTML file, after that select the html, and press the option to create the ebook (I dont remember the name but its one of the options on the top right of the screen).
Once it is done, go into the html folder of the book, and copy the .prc file into your kindle inside the documents folder, that’s all, as simple as that, it will apear in the main list of documents.

Kidle doesn’t show the file, unless it is in the Kindle’s disk
Anyone suceeded!

What are you getting for 10c \conversion\. I emailed a PDF file to the Kindle Accound hoping that it will load the file on my Kindle DX so I can ANNOTATE.

It didn’t. When I look at by list of files it has a \PDF\ logo next to my book.

Did they simply notice I had a DX and just send me the Native PDF file?

I will try again with a WORD Doc and see if it comes out as \annotateable\.
