Convert Newspaperat the epub format to Kindle "Periodical" format
Hi all,

I have a Kindle 10th generation and Calibre. I was wondering if there is a way for me to convert the epub of a newspaper into a mobi file for my kindle at the "periodical" format .

I looked into several posts on this forum or on stackoverflow but they are more than 6 years old and was wondering if there was new ways of doing this?

I managed to convert my epub into "Books" by adding the tag EBOK, I was wondering if something similar existed for the "periodicals"?

I attached an example of epub I would like to convert.

Thank you,

Loïc

Thank you for your quick reply. Once I convert the epub in mobi and upload it on my Kindle with Calibre, is there a way to make the mobi file recognized by the Kindle as "periodical"?
