  • 1a) Create metadata plugboard targeting "Save to disk" as "Device". Save the book somewhere on your HDD using Calibre's "Save to Disk" icon/button.
  • 1b) Sent THAT EXPORTED FILE COPY using "Send to Kindle" app
Praise the gods, that did it! I've been searching for 2 straight days for this info, and was at my wits end! The only data point you don't get is the Page Number option under Kindle's font settings section (under Reading Progress). Is there a fix for this?
