It looks really good on the Kindle too—much better than any magazine I've tried from Amazon. |
Thanks so much for this. I just subscribed to the French version. I sideloaded both the azw3 and PDFs as send to kindle does not work with azw3 and the writeable PDF that sending wirelessly provides is too faint. The sideloaded azw3 and PDF look really great. The epub would not work with send to kindle. It’s great that they have provided so many versions. I’ve attached pictures - the first one is of an article in the azw3 file, the others are all from the PDF. I think it looks wonderful, and wish I could do this for my regular newspapers. Good for Le Monde Diplomatique. Now to find out if Le Monde itself does anything like this. ETA: It doesn’t.
ETA: I transferred the epub eventually, after adding it to Calibre and 'converting' it to an epub!
Following advice from elsewhere on this forum. After doing the 'conversion' in Calibre, send-to-kindle web app worked properly. The epub version has the added bonus of the lock screen image being the front page of the newspaper.
