Live conversion to azw3 NOT azw

alfarhan · 01-31-2013, 05:06 PM

Finally my Kindle Paperwhite works fine with Arabic language. I convert books from epub to azw3 using Caliber fine.

My question is this:

I use online services like instapaper.com which will email whatever web page i want to my PW. Instapaper.com and other services use my email at amazon ***@free.kindle.com to convert the webpage and send it to my kindle. The problem is that Amazon free conversion service will send me .azw file NOT azw3. From what I see .azw files don't display Arabic charecters correctly. I have to download the azw file from my PW to my laptop then convert it to azw3 using Caliber. That's useless.

Is there a way to make Amazon conversion service (@free.kindle.com) to send me azw3 file instead of azw? If not, is there any other way you guys suggest?

Nope, Amazon's email thingy still doesn't support KF8.
