How to install kfx output on Fedora 39:

2. download the Kindle Previewer for Windows (https://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Previe...de=21381691011)
3. right-click the .exe > Open with Wine
4. click through the installer, keep all defaults
5. in Calibre, install the kfx output plugin (Preferences > Plugins > Get New Plugins > (find kfx output) > Install
6. convert your books...

@jhowell: thanks a LOT for this really cool piece of software!
Rebooting to Win11 is pain, the typography nerd in me says 'no' to AZW, the Telegram "eBook Converter Bot" requires 10 steps.
Without your plugin I would probably have to buy a Libre 2, but I love my Oasis1.
Yeah, actually when I tried "too hard" it was more difficult (and it didn't work). Keeping it simple was actually better!
And I agree on the typography nerd thing.
Expecially because I hate azw3 that are not hypenated automatically; I had to run them through Hypenate this!, which works fine but does not provide the same quality
