Can I convert for Kindle and save on USB Flash Drive?
Hi,
I am sorry if this question is answered elsewhere. I have many books on my PC Calibre Library. My son has a Kindle, (not in my home), can I convert for Kindle and save to a flash drive to upload to his Kindle?
I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
Adbears

Welcome to the forum.

No reason why not - just convert, click Save to disk, and navigate to the flash drive.

Incidentally, this is clearly a calibre related question, so you would get more exposure by posting it to the calibre forum.

Thanks Alex. Much appreciated. I will give it a try. My first visit here so wasn't sure where to post. Thanks for the advice.

Moved to calibre, which is certainly a more appropriate forum.

You're very welcome. I can still remember being new and not knowing where to post.

The clue's in the forum name. If your question is about "Calibre", the fact that there's a "Calibre" forum is a hint that that's probably the best place to ask .
