"No KF8 format is produced for these books as far as I can tell in my testing. I assume that the same will also be true of books published using KPF files from Kindle Previewer."
@Jhowell...Does what you say also mean that if a person with an older KF8 device(without ET capability) buys a KFX ebook then or she is going to get a crappy mobi7 file instead?? I always thought that if ET was not enabled and you formatted your epub as KF8 then you would just get KF8 without ET enabled.

And what about if you upload an epub direct to KDP that's formatted for both KF8 and KF7 with ET enabled in testing. If I upload that epub to Amazon Kindle will it take a different conversion route and be deliverable to KF7, KF8 and KFX devices as needed or not??

And, from what Hitch has already said, the only way you can successfully target your epub for all KF7 and KF8 devices without problems -- which would also include KF8 devices with KFX capability -- would seem to be by just formatting your epub as a dual mobi using kindlegen and uploading that to KDP. Have I got that part right?
