Hello community,

coming from a Kindle keyboard I have just bought the new paperwhite due to the integrated vocabulary builder.

Unfortunately I have noticed that the vocabulary builder seems not to work for books that are not bought directly from amazon. I have tried with a bunch of .mobi files and also with a .txt file that I have just created for this purpose.

Just to clarify, I can look up everything in the dictionary while reading (even for .mobi or .txt files). However, the words that I have looked up are only added to my Vocabulary Builder library if I look them up within a book that is bought from amazon. As I read a lot of stuff that is not available from amazon this is a real issue for me.

Do you similar problems or does this work for you? It would be great if you could just try out by creating a test file test.txt with some content, such as "Hello, this is my test file", copy this file to the "documents" folder on your kindle root, then look up a word within this file and answer if the word you just looked up is available in your Vocabulary Builder list. Please make sure that Vocabulary Builder is enabled in Settings->Reading Options->Vocabulary Builder.

Thank you so much!
