I've tried converting Kindle books (AZW3) bought from Amazon to kepub to read them on my Kobo Aura using Calibre several times. About 1 out of 3 times it works fine and the Kobo's features work better on that file. About 2 out of 3 times either I get the message that it can't send some sort of file information along with the file. I don't have the message or a book to try it with on hand at the moment. Or else the file transfers with no message. Either way it doesn't show up on the Kobo except when looking at it from my PC. The Kobo interface doesn't list it. When that happens I'll put the epub on board and that works but features are limited as usual.

Does anyone know what I can do to avoid this?

Also, one feature that never seems to work with either epub or kepub files (or mobi) is the line spacing. Every now and then a book will allow it but most won't.

What can I do to get the features to all work?
