Thanks. Yes I've done that as well. I have found some Kindle books will not convert to Epub either because of being too large or the formatting. I have converted a few in Calibre to text format, then formatted them in Sigil. But some Kindle books are too large or have too much formatting, not many, but a few. I've converted everything I could to Epub this summer. I plan, as much as possible, to only buy DRM-Free Epubs from now on.
