I think they would consider this 'as designed'.
After more investigation, anything you download from Docs Cloud that originates in Amazon Cloud Drive ('ACD') gets saved in its own little folder off to the side:
/sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.zico/files/... .
It seems to be designed primarily for 'documents' of the traditional type: PDF, .doc, .txt rather than Kindle content. After all there is the more full featured Personal Documents service for the latter. I'd rather they got rid of the file size limit on that, as I would not be banging my head over the failure of ACD to do what I want it to.
At any rate, I've come to the conclusion that if one wants to use ACD for extra Kindle storage, it will be better to use the web browser to access and download stuff, just as you would to access content from gutenberg, calibre server etc. Now of course _that_ could be more convenient: they should redirect Kindle files to /Documents instead of /Downloads.
Now the HDX comes with OfficeSuite, right? Does the HDX version explicitly store files in ACD?
I have OfficeSuite Pro (got it for my 1gen Fire but never used it), and I can point it at the ACD local storage area. Wonder if changes sync back to ACD.
