I would like to keep my Amazon content separate from my side-loaded content but can't seem to figure out how. I have a Kindle Fire & use Calibre for converting my content. I am good with the process of adding books, editing metadata, converting, saving, & copying to the Kindle but can't get them in the correct tab.

When converting books, under Convert > Page Setup I have 'Kindle Fire' chosen as the output profile. Looking at the Mobi Output options, the tag [PDOC] is listed. Yet when I convert book, save the resulting .mobi, & copy them to my Fire they all show up under Books instead of Documents.

I thought I had it all figured out but apparently there's something I'm doing wrong. Is there a step or setting I'm missing that's forcing all my side-loaded content to still show up in Books?
