See this option for the calibredb export command:

--dont-update-metadata
Normally, calibre will update the metadata in the saved files from what is in the calibre library. Makes saving to disk slower. Specifying this switch will turn this behavior off.

Thanks!!

Since I didn't see the extra processing for epub exports, I thought it was as aspect of just the KFX

Works quickly now

Updating metadata is slower in KFX format than EPUB because it causes the entire file to be regenerated.

Hello,

I am trying to convert a pdf file to kfx document, yet I am having "KPF file is missing" error. The complete log is below.

Language of the document is Turkish and this is the first time this error occurred. It would be great if someone can help me.

Code:

PDF's are fixed page format. You'll need to use "Command Line Interface (CLI)" to convert them into KFX, and not Calibre. KFX Output still needs to be installed in Calibre. Instructions are mentioned in the first post. Also read "Comics and Manga" part as it's explaining similar things.

Basically, you first convert PDF into KPF with "Kindle Create" program from Amazon (file-new project-print replica-choose pdf-export). Then you run the command in the directory where your KPF file is.

For example, if you converted gckln0yk.pdf into gckln0yk.kpf. You'd then need to type:
calibre-debug -r "KFX Output" -- "gckln0yk.kpf" "gckln0yk.KFX" -d
If everything goes right, you'll get fixed page kfx file categorised as personal document.

Feel free to ask if you've any problems with this process, I've figured it out after some trial and error, but it has since worked flawlessly for me.

Btw, while I was looking back at the first post. Something looks confusing to me:

Converting Comics and Manga:
Quote:
KFX comics sideloaded to an e-ink Kindle display in manga mode, even if they are not manga, and panel view does not function. Conversely, manga mode does not function in the Android or iOS Kindle app, but comics with panels will display using Guided View.
When creating comics in Kindle Create 'Reading Direction' is now preserved. Also, is there a difference between Panel View and Guided View? If they're the same, then they do work, as long as panels are created in Kindle Create. I'm not exactly sure if they always worked. I remember that Guided View didn't work on a test file that I did a while back, now it works. It could be that I just didn't know how to enable it on the reader, or that it started to work with one of the updates on Kindle. I'm leaning towards the latter as I remember tapping the screen like a fool trying to get it to work, but who knows. It's the same file, so it's nothing to do with KFX Output and Kindle Create versions.

Also:
Quote:
The plugin is also not able to convert fixed layout comics and manga from source formats such as CBR, CBZ, EPUB, or MOBI.
CBR and CBZ files can be converted. But need to be unpacked and then repacked into KFS with Kindle Create. They're simple zip or rar files with images that can be unpacked with a file archive software. It's then possible to create KFS files out of them in Kindle Create. Same should go for EPUB and MOBI, but process will be a bit longer.

PDF format uses a fixed-layout that often does not work well with calibre conversion. Calibre will convert the PDF into a reflowable EPUB but the result may have a variety of flaws. See Read this before Posting PDF Questions for details.

The error that is produced in this case, "KPF file is missing", results from the Kindle Previewer crashing when attempting to convert the reflowable EPUB produced by calibre into KPF format. This can happen for extremely large and complex books. I suspect that is the case here.

I recommend that you convert your PDF to AZW3 format in calibre and then check whether or not the result is readable using calibre's viewer. If so then that format will probably be a better choice than KFX for this particular book.

I do not believe that to be the best approach for this particular book. From the log it appears to be a PDF containing text so converting to a reflowable format would result in the most readable format for a Kindle device as long as it converts fairly cleanly.

Otherwise I suggest simply sideloading the original PDF. That is not going to be a great reading experieance on abaxmith's 7th generation Kindle PaperWhite (PW3), but is better than nothing. It would make sense to consider using KFX Print Replica only if abaxmith owned a Kindle Scribe as that would enable annotating the book.

They are the same thing. I will change the documentation to use "Guided View" more consistently.

Support for Guided View is a recent change introduced early this year in Kindle firmware version 5.16.6. It does not work in older Kindle firmware. I will update the documentation to reflect that.
