Hi all. This is my first post!!!
I need some help with my epub files.
I convert one of my books from InDesign into epub and correct that with Sigil.
Then I validate it EPUB Validator. Everything is fine on my kindle. Then I convert that into mobi with Calibre, for my Android phone. I have Kindle reader app on my phone, but there are only squares displayed. What is the problem???
Thanks

Sounds like a text encoding issue. Mobi only deals with utf-8 or windows-1252, I believe.

This, however, confuses me. The one has nothing to do with the other (unless you're talking about a third-party ePub-reading app on a Kindle Fire). Convert your ePub with the official Amazon tools (kindlegen/Kindle Previewer) and see if the "squares" don't go away.
