Hi there,

So, I'm a total newb. Part of the reason I got my Fire HD 8 was so I could save some professional documents to my Kindle for easy viewing. Some of my PDF's have saved to MOBI format beautifully. Others, not so much.

I'm looking to keep the look of each PDF as I have it now. I'd like to import it to my Kindle library as I've found they load much faster that way. However, some of my PDFs actually convert to an ebook format and the text is spread across several pages and it separates ideas in ways I do not want it to be separated. I literally just want it to save like it would as the PDF. I imagine that if I printed out each document and then scanned it as a PDF again this issue would disappear, as the text would have been saved as a scanned image. However, we're talking 200 some odd page documents and I have no desire to print these out and scan them again. Surely there has to be a way to avoid this!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
