Images going from ePub tu mobi or azw3 format

valegar44 · 09-08-2014, 06:16 PM

Hello!!
i would first like to say i'm not an expert on format and creating ebooks. I downloaded a book which is hard to find in an electronic format and it was on ePub, the book has many images and they're important to understand it. So, the thing is, when I convert it with calibre (and some other online converters) to .mobi or .azw3 the images disapear, everything else is ok, except that in the place of images there are small squares with a question mark.

I think I've tried every option calibre has and i don't know what else to try.

Try KindleGen, a free download from Amazon, to do the conversion, or Kindle Previewer, another free download.

This sounds like a simple fix, the link to the images was broken in the conversion process is what probably happens. If KindleGen doesn't work for you then upload the ePub here.
