Kindle file format

Post by Kellylynn444 »

Is the file format of books for the kindle fire all the same or are they different for each version? I don't know what format file to select.

Does any one know how to take a simple microsoft word or pdf file and convert them to mobi or epubs easily? I would love to offer my new book for free , but need to jump this hurdle first.

Thanks!

You can use the Caliber program for converting.

Hi Gali,

What is the Caliber Program?

Im not looking to spam people. I simply wanted to have versions of it accessable for both the kindle and nook if the opportunity presented itself.




Thank you
