How to convert eBooks from one format to another and send them to your Kindle
Often the book we want to read on our eBook reader is in a format that is incompatible or just doesn’t look good. There are several ways to convert eBooks to other formats. I prefer Calibre: https://calibre-ebook.com/ This free software is ideal for converting any format to be readable on your Amazon Kindle or other eBook readers. Calibre supports Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
The best format for the Kindle is AZW3 or Mobi (an older format that does not support meta data).
