kindletool is (unfortunately) totally, utterly broken (see my posts about that in the Jailbreak thread). It works sometimes, but unfortunately, it produces garbage many other times. The reason is not so much wrong coding, but wrong assumptions about memory management (which seem not to hold in current Linux distributions).
For newer .bin packages (like the font hack), kindletool did not work, so I am now relying on the
"unofficial kindletool mode" that I built into the localization package, where the original "kindletool" is only used for converting packages.
