0) load your mobi into calibre and make sure you are happy with all the metadata (title, author, cover, etc) as you cannot change anything of the file at all after you wise-process it.
1) take the file from the calibre library folder, copy it somewhere else (say your desktop) and process it with wisecreator / wisecreator.exe
2) remove the old mobi from calibre deleting it via calibre interface itself (just select and hit delete, to be clear  )
2) add the new mobi from desktop\title*wordwised folder to calibre library via calibre > add
NOTE: from here on, the file cannot be edited: the md5 of the calibre library must not change or you will loose either the cover or wordwise (can't recall which)
3) send to kindle: use calibre > send to main memory
OPTIONAL: use MOBIeditor v1.1.exe to verify that the process didn't mess with the asin code in the metadata (i.e.: the asin of the mobi on your kindle is the same as the asin on your WordWised folder. If you did everything fine, this should be unnecessary
5) add the .kll file ( from the sdr subfolder of your WordWised mobi - to your Kindle\documents\author\book\book*.sdr folder)
IMPORTANT: do Never move them again... whatever you do, don't rename or move anything in those kindle folders... even if you move them back, they will loose their cover and you will have to repeat everything from scratch
--- I tried this with 6 books and they are all hits, the process works for me: kindl paperwhite 4, windows 10, calibre 3.34 |
Stop at 5) if you don't need XRAY, or proceed if you want xray too
6) go on amazon and get the actual asin for the book (kindle format)
7) make a copy of the mobi, edit it with MOBIeditor v1.1.exe and replace the asin with a new one. Rename the file to dummy.mobi
8) unplug the kindle, open the book dummy, wait until the kindle downloads all the data and xray becomes available
9) plug the kindle via USB, go into dummy.sdr folder, copy all files and paste them into the sdr folder of the wordwised book
10) replace the ASIN string in the name of the files you pasted so that they match the ASIN string of the .kll file
(eg: LanguageLayer.en.abcde12f-g345-678h-fi95-050c090655e5.kll >>>

XRAY.entities.abcde12f-g345-678h-fi95-050c090655e5.asc )
11) unplug the kindle again and enjoy your ww-xray-cover ebook
