When I import an AZW/AZW3 file into Calibre, it converts it to MOBI, which Calibre cannot edit. So then I have to convert it back to AZW before editing.
I try to minimize the number of conversions back and forth, as it can introduce problems.
I can't seem to find a setting that leaves it as AZW when importing, so I can directly edit it.
People say that AZW and MOBI are basically the same, but I find that hard to believe, as there are no MOBI editors, and Calibre has no trouble editing AZW.
Help!
