KFX is a highly processed binary format and conversion of it to more standard formats is based on my trial and error efforts. Even the best result will be missing some of the formatting details that were originally provided to Amazon by the publisher.



That is a known problem with sideloaded books in KFX format. See the documentation for the KFX Output plugin for possible work arounds.
Had a look, and that makes sense. Now to try and get the Extract app to work, ha! Thanks again for your assistance, very appreciated.
