You have to go back to the drawing board and create a real ebook from this (as in, text is actual text, and can be copied/pasted/resized, etc.). Quote:
The only thing I could think of is on older devices, like the original Nook, if you had images >~3.5 million pixels, they sometimes just disappeared, because the device itself didn't have enough RAM. These are around 3 million (1410x2250). |

FYI--not for a book that even MENTIONS Covid-19. All books, ALL, that even mention Covid, Kovid (sorry, Kovid!), CV, CV-19, "the China virus" or anything at all remotely connected to Covid-19 are actively banned from being published at Amazon. I know that's not what this thread is about, but be aware that going that route is doomed to fail. Hitch |

It's very hard now to type Corvid instead of Covid.
Make the ebook as much text as possible and not fixed layout. Make sure images are not too big. Test on a 6" phone app and also on an older 800 x 600 resolution eink ereader. |

So my friend still has no return from PocketBook after-sales service. I assumed it was a problem with updating them and published it as it was. For the moment, no complaints. The conversion from Amazon to Mobi already settled the pb of old kindle reading lights. It works very well. That's why I put it on Amazon first. I cross my fingers for PocketBook to confirm this blocked update problem. I keep you at the cost as soon as I know more. Thanks again to everyone!

Always try Smashwords first. (Upload an epub2 and a Dual Mobi made from it, also an MS Doc, Use a DOCx locally to make an epub2) and their upload checker is more thorough than Amazon.
