Unhappy MOBI doesn't appear on the list
Hi,
I would like to convert a ''Word Document'' file to put it on Kindle,
I know that the compatible format for kindle is MOBI
I clicked on Convert books and I don't see MOBI on the list (at the left)
If I click on MOBI in the Output format list en the right, it doesn't work...

INPUT is on the Left

DOC is not a valid input (without extra plugin) DOCX with the PI is better

do download the HTML/Word Conversion guide (near the bottom)

@CuisineSpirale - what do you mean by 'it doesn't work...'

When you click OK, a job starts - see bottom right corner, if job finishes successfully there will be a MOBI file showing in Book details, otherwise there will be an error message.

If latter, copy message to clipboard (there's a button to do that), and paste it (ctrl/v) into a post here.
