Hi Hotwired,

I load books to my Fire HDX, from Calibre Sever, via Calibre Companion. But I DON'T read them in Calibre Companion - I go to Books, and open it from there. Reading position is preserved between sessions that way.

Oh, and I "Polish" the books in Calibre before uploading, to imbed the cover in the file (I upload azw3, not mobi) and as long as the image size is within some limits (I use the resize cover plugin to set them to 520 x 800), the cover shows up in the carousel etc.

Hope this helps,
Liz
