Possible Kovid and his team can help us get the KF sideloaded books to work as intended. |

I'm like you and most of my books were either purchased outside of Amazon or have been modified. I don't remember the specifics, but I followed a thread here on MR and set up calibre to automatically do the PDOC thing so as to make any conversion via calibre Whispersyncable. I think the thread is in the Developer section, but I cannot remember. Anyone know the link? |

Ah okay. I stop using the Reader app when I found out I have to reboot each time I want books to show up that I've sideloaded.

So what I'm doing is converting them to MOBI (even though they technically already are that format) but making sure the [PDOC] tag is left out. I also updated this in my preferences. I'm then sending the MOBI format to my desktop, and I drag them to the books folder on the Kindle. But still showing up as docs. Maybe I should import my books again as just epubs and reconvert? |

Doing the conversion without PDOC worked for me, so I'm not sure why you're having trouble. Try using calibre (which released today with drivers for the fire)

I just tried importing a new epub in to Calibre, converting it to MOBI (made sure that [pdoc] tag was left out) saved it to my desktop and sideloaded it to my kindle. Still showing up in docs, weird.
Thanks everyone for the help thus far, much appreciated. |
