If you sent an ePub to Send to Kindle, you will get an Amazon reflowable format ebook (whatever Amazon thinks is best for your device). If you send a PDF using StK, can you guess what you receive? Either a PDF or an equivalent if you happen to have a Scribe. |

Send to Kindle PDF option should always be 'preserve layout' (so it converts to print replica) otherwise result is likely to be 'unreadable' when it tries to reflow. It's best to use the web browser or S2K apps and avoid email attachment send to kindle method, as you have more control. |

Again, in my experience, most NetGalley books were reflowable epubs. Send-to-kindle converted to AZW3. Or at that time, you had the option of Adobe protected epub.
In the rare case, when it was a pdf, send-to-kindle still converted to an AZW3 which was a completely unreadable mess. But you had the option of Adobe protected pdf. So I would get that and read on a larger screen. If you could somehow get the send-to-kindle to arrive as AZW4, then you could remove the DRM and use Kindle Unpack to extract a pdf you could read on whatever you like. But now your only real option for pdfs is the Thorium app I guess. Don't know how that is. Last edited by lkmiller; 02-06-2025 at 01:42 PM. |

The post I was responding to was about the fact that you don't have a choice to use the email attachment version of send-to-kindle from NetGalley as opposed to the website or send-to-kindle apps. Because NetGalley is the one emailing the file to your Kindle. |
