I actually don't really care if I get the AZW3s on my K3, because the K3 font/size is perfect for me as is. I was really hoping the paperwhite would look like my K3, but sharper and with a nice frontlight. I choose which device to deliver to, since I have the two Kindles and the Kindle4PC on my account. I just thought there might be a setting somewhere that will default to always sending AZW3s. I think I am going to have to send it back though. It makes my vision blurry to read on it for even a short while. |

Note: the ones that are currently not azw3, you will have to re-download from your amazon account, per above. You may or may not need the help of Amazon Customer Service. |

Some still send as AZW to my paperwhite though. Maybe due to publication date or publisher?

My post seems to have slipped by.
Yes, it is most likely the publication date. If a book was NOT submitted as a dual-MOBI (current kindlegen output since AZW3 was developed), Amazon won't have an AZW3 to send you, and you will only get MOBI. |

All Readers I have seen with a front light have a shadow at the bottom of the screen. That's just the nature of the beast.

Well, maybe they will reprocess and create AZW3. (For gosh sakes, how hard is it? calibre coverts MOBI ==> AZW3 just fine, if you don't count the mobi7 cruft, works just as well as an AZW3 as it did as a MOBI, plus it supports the new internal file structure and can then be enhanced, edited, updated cover, etc...)
Maybe they haven't gotten to all books yet. (This one isn't a maybe. You can still get some books as KFX, some as AZW3.) Maybe they won't reprocess those old books at all. ... Who knows -- why don't we wait and see. Last edited by eschwartz; 11-13-2015 at 02:29 PM. |

Some of my PW-1's have a minor shadow at the bottom of the screen (between leds), some don't (depends on the production run). My KT2 and PW-3 do not have any shadow (they have that problem sorted out). If you do have a "newer than PW-1" with a shadow(s) at the bottom of the screen **it is** defective - return it for exchange. |

Since you have a new model, I suggest that you work backward through this thread, and try the most recent examples first. The file is a simple text file, one line only, end-of-line does not matter (it is being read by Java). |

since this tweak works so perfectly, I wonder if there is a similar trick to apply to the dictionary pop-up window and the foot-note pop-up bar, since both of thier appearance in pop-window on my Kindle Voyage seem irrelevant to the specific css settings.

ETA: I think the dictionary font size is determined by one of the sizes in FONT_RAMP or jar equivalent. Maybe the fourth or fifth, I don't know which exactly. You'll need to experiment. Last edited by Barty; 11-24-2015 at 01:48 AM. |
