Help needed -- Will pay! Kindle does not download to PDF properly!

MichaelNeedsHelp · 10-04-2020, 07:02 AM

I am having trouble converting this book into a PDF.

It cuts off the RIGHT page....only gives me the left page

Is it because the book is "2 pages" and it only downloads the single side?

Let me know how much I can pay you. I can send you the kindle book file.

Thank you!!

Michael

From where did you get the book? Why are you converting to PDF? Convert to AZW3 for a Kindle.

PDF files are never great on a 6 or 7" screen either, even if the file shows correctly. When they do work, you have to pan back and forth and up and down to see the entire page.

THANK YOU for your reply!

I bought 2 books from Amazon to be used with Kindle.

But, I need the PDFs so I can print them out larger (and in high quality) for my classes!)

Are there known issues with this?

If someone gives me their email, I can send you the Kindle files (AZW) and if they can save the as PDFs for me (and my students!) I will happily pay money!

Sincerely,
Michael

Those will probably be fixed layout books, they cannot be converted.

You are way outside the legal licensing for those books if you do that. If students need the books, they need to buy the books themselves.

You're not allowed to make copies of books and hand them out.

Not hand them out, print them out onto a fabric so when I read to the children I can turn the sheets.

Any ideas?

Print on fabric? You can't print out the pages of Kindle books.

Sounds like you need a white board and the appropriate licensing for the books you're using in a classroom. What does the school leadership say? There are legal issues at play.
