See the section "From KFX" toolbar action in the first post of this thread for information on how you can avoid this error and convert the book to PDF instead of EPUB. |

BTW I'm finding a few more Print Replica books that include Kindle Scribe in supported device lists, and from a large publisher. This one is free: Measure, Integration & Real Analysis (Graduate Texts in Mathematics Book 282) SpringerOpen titles are all free. Not all of those in PR format include Scribe in supported devices, and I have not found any paid books from Springer that do (using PR is more the exception rather than the rule for their catalog). I guess this only proves that Scribe support can be added by any publisher using print replica format. It falls short of explaining why this practice is not a lot more common. I would guess it is just because they would have to update the listing for each of their books, and it's a manual process and not something they are used to doing.

It may have something to do with maintaining copy protection for books of value. After all if a print replica book is available on Scribe a user can make an unobtrusive annotation on each page and use that to export the entire book as a DRM-free PDF.

The irony is that Scribe ignores AZW4 entirely (with or without DRM removed). It does transfer successfully to a Fire tablet. The PDF in there is easily extracted by calibre or Kindle Unpack. I wonder if the rest of the data in there provides sufficient 'context' to construct a bona fide print replica KFX? Otherwise AZW4 is kind of useless for side loading to a Scribe.

But Amazon controls everything about print replica and what gets exported, so they should be able to offer an option to disable the write-on feature, or degrade the export (e.g. rasterize the page thumbnails instead of including PDF text objects). But maybe not enough volume to justify engineering effort. |

AZW4 has most of the functionality of KFX print replica. It contains a PDF that is only used to render page images along with a list of words and their locations that is used for text selection and searching. KFX print replica has a few other features such as clickable links and the ability to embed audio/video content that AZW4 lacks. |
