Thank you.

So if I'm understanding correctly from the various posts in this thread ...
  • Most everybody uses KDP to get their books on Amazon, except some big publishers who have access to direct uploads via FTP
  • Most everybody uploads EPUB or DOCX to KDP (and I'm guessing big publishers upload EPUB as I can't imagine them uploading Word docs)
  • Amazon will convert both EPUB and DOCX into KF7, KF8 and KFX
  • If a publisher uploads KPF created using Kindle Create, Amazon will likely (definitely?) convert it only to KF7 and KFX, no more KF8
  • It's yet unknown whether Amazon will convert KPF created using Kindle Previewer into KF7, KF8 and KFX or only KF7 and KFX
  • We don't think Amazon is phasing out KF8???

Does that all sound about right?
