calibre-debug -r "KFX Output" -- "your-file-name.kpf"
That will produce your-file-name.kfx which can be sideloaded to a Kindle device or app.
Not having as Scribe I can't actually test how the results will work. If someone tries it let us know.
You can sideload them, but they work poorly at present. For example you cannot select text within the document.

I don't have a Scribe yet either, but I did test a 36mb 1000+ pages PDF. The result of the print replica KFX is lacking when I sideload this onto my Oasis. Same symptoms as I assume are on the Scribe - no TOC, no selectable, searchable, highlightable, noteable text. No hyperlinks, no cover. The ONLY benefit over the PDF viewer is the option to "crop margins." But the Oasis crashes every 10 or 15 pages.
