I am a complete novice to Calibre and conversions. I copied my wife's books from a Kindle Paperwhite to a folder on my iMac, installed Calibre and copied those to the Calibre Library. They are all predominantly in KFX format!
My intention was to copy them to a new Paperwhite 5, however, it seems this is not as simple as I had been led to believe. What steps do I need to take to achieve this? I presume conversion is not possible without some of the steps described here or is there another way?
Any help or advise very welcome.
