Trouble mailing PDF to Kindle

strindberg · 12-02-2011, 02:24 AM

I have around ten PDFs that I have tried to mail to my kindle email address from within Calibre. I every case, the title of the PDF when it reaches my K4 (and when I look at it under "Personal Documents" on Amazon.com) has been both the author name and the title.

So, for instance, I have the following PDF in Calibre:
Title: Test Driven
Author: Lasse Koskela

When I mail it to my kindle email address, it ends up in Personal Documents and on the K4 as:
Title: Test Driven - Lasse Koskela
Author: Lasse Koskela

The same thing has happened to all PDFs taht I have sent so far. Note that I have not asked for any conversion, so it's in PDF both in Calibre and on the K4.

The Kindle email service does that on PDFs. You will need to sideload them.

Oh, I see. How very irritating!

Anyway, thank you very much for the quick reply.
