Happy to move this post if I've put it in the wrong section

Hi All,

I've just started using Calibre and it's very very close to being perfect for what I want. But (theres always a but) I have a problem. My wife has created a kids book where each page is a photoshop image. We batch convert these into a PDF so Page was is Image 1, Page 2 Image 2 etc etc. I've imported this PDF into Calibre and converted into a MOBI file and when I view it in my Kindle App I see that there is a blank page after each image. When I Edit the book in Calibre I can see that it has taken each page of the PDF and converted them to JPG's, which all looks fine but when I View the book within Calibre it looks like there is some Page Break like after each image. Any idea what this is?

If anybody can say how I could make a MOBI file from several JPG images then that would be great as I'm not bothered if I don't have to use a PDF. I was only using PDF because I was originally using KDP.
