Opening Fixed Layout KF8 on Kindle 1,2. What happens?
Hi everyone!
I was just wondering. What happens when you open a fixed layout eBook on Kindle 1, 2 and DX? Does it open at all? What happens with the fixed image size and text location? I do not have an old one to test on. Thanks! |

I don't have a fixed layout ebook to test on my Kindle 2, but I suspect it would be the same exact thing that happens when attempting to open any KF8-only file: a warning that the book could not be opened. Fixed-layout or not... KF8 is simply a no-go on Kindle1/2s.

Thanks for the info but how does that work? Do you upload two versions, one product page for the mobi and one for KF8, media queries?
