				PW5: converted mobi type book/document/comics
			 
			
			
			Hello, 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	I have a kindle paperwhite 11th generation with the last update 5.14.2. I'm used to convert mangas and comics using KCC, Kindle Comic Converter https://github.com/ciromattia/kcc With the recent update, in the library, there is now a filter view button. Converted mangas are included in the type "books" instead of "comics". So, I've tried kindle comic creator to create a comic instead https://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Comic-...de=23496309011 and I also tried Kindle Previewer https://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Previe...de=21381691011 With kindle comic creator and Kindle Previewer, the created/converted manga is included in the type "documents" instead of "comics" in the filters of the kindle paperwhite. Both tools create an epub file and then convert the epub to a mobi file. kindlegen seems used in both cases to convert from epub to mobi. in each case, the epub file contains a content.opf with the tag <meta name="book-type" content="comic"/> I had a look at https://kindlegen.s3.amazonaws.com/A...Guidelines.pdf nothing is specified there about the type except the tag <meta name="book-type" content="comic"/> Do you have any idea how to force the type to comics? Thanks in advance for your feedback and your help. Darodi  |

			I believe the Comics tag come from ASIN tag associated with the comics, because when I use "Download and transfer via USB" to transfer official comics onto my airplane-mode Kindle, it doesn't show up as Comics either. It does show up as Comic for my Kindle that's online.
