I have recently been having problems with converting a Kindle book to PDF from any type of file. It just sits in the job queue and looks like it is running, but I let it run overnight and still it did not convert. Driving me crazy. These are not drm protected books. Sorry about the long thread, but wanted someone to see processing of book. The book(s) get to 84% and just stop, hanging up the other jobs behind it. Is there a "cure"? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. I just was not sure if there was some sort of "bug" with my software or some other problem. Now that I know this regarding the PDF conversions, I will not be so concerned. Also, I would like to apologize for the length of my post. I was simply trying to convey as much information as I could in the beginning so that there was not a need for several back and forth communications.

Do not apologize for the length of the post. We want folks having problems to include the complete log file in their posts. Next time add spoiler tags (advanced editor, eye with red X) to log information so the moderator doesn't have to do it.
