So:
- Is this a good idea??
- How can I tell Calibre to not convert the PDF to MOBI?
- How can I tell Calibre that the Kindle can read PDFs? (Which Amazon says they can, though I have never tried it)

Thanks, and apologies if this is the wrong forum.


.
Configure the driver (easiest to access from the device icon, when connected) to include formats:AZW4
ALSO
do a Manual convert PDF to AZW4 (you must choose on the Right) so the 'auto' (wrong) does not choose Mobi or AZW3 the best default for EPUB.
