Yes, as I tried to explain, the process that has worked for me is:
HTML>PDB>EPUB

(Going from mobi to HTML adds the additional epub stage.)

My last post lays it out a little clearer I hope.

If you can post a link to the original mobi file, I would be glad to try
and see what the issue actually is. The procedure I have tried to
describe has worked to reformat ebooks that caused the "File too big"
error in the JBL (and having a large number of illustrations), in their
original format to be made into epub files that work well in the JBL.
There is no guarantee that it will fix this particular file though, there
may well be some other problem that is not addressed by this exact
procedure.

Luck;
Ken
