Does anyone know whether there's a way of running this process in reverse, ideally while keeping highlighting and notes made on the Kindle, and reverting to original formatting (page numbers etc.)? The great advantage would be that documents read and annotated on the Kindle could be read on any other device, with page numbers correctly showing (important for citing and quoting).
Alternatively, is there a not-too-complicated way of reading such personal documents in the Kindle app on a PC or tablet?
Many thanks in advance!
It think it would already help if Amazon supported personal documents in their PC and Mac apps (for exactly that reason; reminds me to write to Amazon again, would appreciate if more of you did)...
The workaround I am using is this: I installed Bluestacks (an Android emulator) on the Mac and the Kindle app in there. I does not support retina resolution, is a bit clunky for navigation but once in the document, I can browse the ebook and it even supports copying of content which then can be pasted into my writing...
