PDF>MOBI Random blank pages inserted no matter what I do.
Hello everyone,
I have an issue I've been dealing with for hours now and I completely don't know what to do anymore.
I have a couple of pdf books (very obscure, scanned, with no other formats available) and I've been trying to convert them into .mobi for a 2016 basic Kindle. I convert because PDFs on Kindle tend to stop working after two dozens of pages or so.
When I convert and view it on the Kindle, I am getting random blank pages approximately every 1-3 pages. For example page 25, blank, page 26, page 27, blank.
It's horribly infuriating and after going through the settings I don't know what's wrong anymore. Most of the PDFs don't contain any text, it's usually only a scanned picture per page.
I have tried .azw3 but when I go through a few pages, the Kindle errors and asks me to redownload the file. I can't open .epub and can't use the send by e-mail function either since it's a borrowed Kindle and I don't have access to the account.
I leave the default settings except the pages I attached to the post where I changed some things (default settings produced blank pages too).
Any help is greatly appreciated, the fact I only need a sequence of images with no text made me wonder if I should try creating a comic book archive and then try converting to .mobi but I don't know how much time it would take and if there's an easier option (or preferably something wrong with my settings ).
Here is the conversion log, but I'm not sure if it helps.
you are likely getting the blank pages because a bit of the image extends beyond the page. The best way to convert image only books is to first convert them to cbz files and trhen convert those in calibre. there are plenty of tools available that will extract all the images from a PDF file
