Chinese eBook Encoding On Kindle

Hi,

I recently bought a Kindle, and have loaded some chinese mobi ebooks on it for my parents. The content shows as simplified chinese.

If possible, we would like to read the ebooks in traditional chinese instead.

Does anyone know how we could do this? I know that the encoding comes into play, but I'm not sure at what stage?

Would the original mobi file need to be reconverted to a new mobi file with a different encoding scheme? If so, can Calibre or another tool do this conversion?

Or, is encoding controlled at the Kindle level (i.e. the mobi file can be interpreted as either simplified or traditional). If this is the case, does anyone know how to configure the Kindle to show content in traditional chinese?

Thanks for any help on this subject!
