I am looking for help in regards to a Kindle DX. I need to know if there is a way to convert PDF documents into the Kindle format so I can add notes to the document. Example-I have a script of 100 pages that I want to send to my Kindle DX. But Kindle DX does not support notes on a PDF so I would need to convert the PDF into the Kindle format that allows me to add notes to the script.
Hope this isn't too cryptic. Thanks.

Welcome to MobileRead, richard friedman. From you users guide

Built-in PDF Reader for Kindle DX

"Your Kindle DX can display PDF documents without losing the formatting of the original file. Send PDF documents directly to your Kindle (via your @Kindle address) or drag and drop PDF files from your computer to your Kindle (when connected via USB). You can also magnify PDFs by viewing them in landscape mode.

Some features are not currently supported, including annotations and Text-to-Speech. The only Kindle devices supported for PDFs are the Kindle and Kindle DX."

Here is the help page where you can download the users guide in pdf to 'read along'

thanks desert grandma......first, how do I add my picture to my postings? I am concerned about the non feature on the Kindle DX about no annotations. How would I send a script to my Kindle so I can make annotations?

Good to have your company, Richard. If you want to show your face, just pop into your MR profile and upload a picture from your PC. Very best wishes. Neil
