I tried sending a test book in Japanese and it was delivered in KF8 instead of KFX to the Kindle for Android app.

I also received the following email. In the past either a book went through or failed completely.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for using the Send to Kindle service. We are reaching out to let you know that a document, sent to your Kindle at 01:42 PM on Tue, Sep 26, 2023 GMT, contains incompatible elements for Kindle format conversion. We’ve still delivered the document so that you can read it with Kindle, but in its current format it won’t support the latest Kindle features for documents, including Kindle Scribe handwriting features.

To make document(s) compatible with Kindle format conversion:
  • Split large tables into several smaller tables, align the direction of text in the tables, and remove drop-caps in the tables.
  • Remove multi-media content such as audio, video, and SVG images.
  • Remove mathematical equations.
  • Remove images that contain linear gradients.
  • Remove password protection or any other security settings.
  • Remove any footnotes inside footnotes.
  • Check the document can be opened on a computer.
  • Make sure the document doesn’t have more than 8,000 pages.
  • Try sending the document again via Send to Kindle for Web.

To learn more about converting documents to a Kindle format, please visit our help page. By downloading or using Send to Kindle, you agree to the terms here.

Regards,
Amazon Kindle Support
