It'll open .mobi files generated by the KindleGenQt plugin, but only if the Generate AZW3/MOBI7 and Don't add source files options aren't checked. (This'll create a dual mobi file with attached source files.) However, if you open a dual mobi file with Kindle Previewer, it'll convert it to a .kpf file, which will take a couple of minutes. If you want to preview the output files, right-click them and select Open with > The Calibre e-book viewer. |

Is there any advantage in using the plugin over converting with Kindle Previewer? Particularly considering KDP now prefers EPUB sources?

So which plugin options and file extension is best for side-loading onto a Kindle?
Thanks |

I use it mostly for converting .epub files to .kfx files, which I sideload on my Kindle and my tablet devices. Quote:
However, you don't need to use the KindleGen plugin for this, because you can also convert your .epub books to .kfx books with Calibre and send them to your device. |
