If you want to produce fixed-layout KFX yourself without involving Amazon’s servers you can do that by using Amazon’s Kindle Create to produce a print replica book from your PDF, export that in KPF format, and then use the CLI mode of my KFX Output plugin to convert that KPF to KFX. (Conversion using calibre won’t work because it does not support fixed layout.) That will produce a KFX file that you can sideload to a Scribe via USB.

I doubt that it would be possible to export the annotated file so this would probably not be very useful other than as an experiment.
Wait, what? To create a print replica KFX all I need is to open the PDF in Kindle Previewer, save as KPF, and then use which commands exactly for the KFX output plugin? Do you have a thread about it here on MR? Edit: oops, Kindle Create - off looking for a download.

I don't yet have a Scribe. Would those print replica KFX be compatible to sideload to other Kindles?
