I'm not talking about anything in particular, Hitch. If you post on the wrong thread, you have to write something to get rid of it and it won't allow a single word. Hence, "This is duplicate". MR is a great forum, but it still amazes me that MR won't allow people to delete there own posts.

Just to be clear -- KPF is completely useless for putting on your kindle? You still have to convert it to something else to side load it?
Discovered that a few of my re-editied epub books are now showing up as having "enhanced typesetting" (HOW?!?!?!) but I still need to Hyphenate in calbre then convert to mobi to get the "enhancements" I want... |

I honestly don't think that Amazon's going to drop MOBI any time soon--by which I mean the combo MOBI, the KF8/KF7 combination "mobi" file. They have too many products that use it to this day. If you want Enhanced Typesetting, you'll have to go through the gyrations to get a KFX file for that. Hitch |

BTW, KFX Files generated by the KFX Output plugin can also be sideloaded to Kindle for iOS apps. |

The plugin CLI can also convert directly from KPF to KFX. It does not need to make use of the Kindle previewer for that operation since it is just repackaging the file in that case. |

I tried the KFX plugin but it messed with custom font sizes in headings for one, and that was a deal-breaker. All I really want for myself is hyphenation, and that plugin plus KP3 works perfectly, so ... stuck with .mobi.
I was hoping if KP was suddenly going to allow output of "enhanced typesetting" I could save myself a step or two... |

Still messes with all my heading sizes and screws with the layout mobi is fine for me. Last edited by Kamikuza; 02-25-2020 at 03:22 PM. |

Kindle Previewer uses kindlegen to produce a Master MOBI that includes the older MOBI7 and newer KF8 in a single file. Kindle devices and apps will use the KF8 portion if they support that format or the MOBI7 portion if they do not.

Don't get me wrong--I personally prefer mobi, as a bookmaker. But I'm not clear on why KFX would mess up your heading sizes. What's your CSS? Hitch |
