Editor changes do not show up when sent into device

Hi there,

Sorry if the issue has already been adressed, but I couldn't find a proper solution through the forum.
I used Caliber to duplicate an ebook in my library, changed the title of the copy, and then made some changes (mostly adding a few words and sentences in some places) in the ebook using the Caliber Editor.
The changes seem to work well as per the caliber editor preview.
Similarly, when I use the reading / visualisation tool of Caliber, the changes are there too.

However, when I send the ebook to my Kindle Paperwhite : the uploaded book seems to be ok with the modified title. However the changes made inside the text do not appear !

Any reason for this ? Did I do something wrong (I'm not a heavy user of Caliber) ?
Thanks for your help

depends on which book format you edited. The editor works oon epub and azw3. If sent mobi to the device the changes wont show up till you reconvert the epub/azw3 to mobi.
