Mike,

Amazon won't tell you that something is in a Topaz format, but if you're looking at the book's page on the Amazon site, and it only tells you how many pages the book has and not the size of the download, you should be suspicious that it might be a Topaz book. The K-2 handles these better than the K-1 did, but the formatting of the books can be terrible, and books formatted in Topaz are usually about 10x the size of an ordinary formatted book.

See https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/AZW1#Topaz
for more information.

To identify whether your book is indeed formatted in one of the Topaz format, plug your Kindle into the computer, open up the documents folder and look.
