Question Can I convert eBook from any Kindle device in ePub?
Can I convert eBook from any Kindle device (Paperwhite, Fire, HD and ect.) direct in ePub?
If yes, how this ePub will look, like original or like converted from AZW3 with Calibre?
Possible receive ePub with good quality direct from AZW? Not with converting from AZW3 to ePub.

It has the ability to extract the data from standard MOBIs, KF8s, Joint MOBI/KF8s, Print Replicas (AZW4), and has some limited (experimental) support for processing MOBI dictionaries (Provided they are DRM-free of course).

Yes/no. If there is DRM, you can only do this is the eBook is in Mobi or KF8 and you are setup with the DRM removal plugins in Calibre. A lot of eBooks will be KF8 on a Paperwite 2 on up.

As for Amazon tablets, the answer is that if the eBooks have DRM, no you cannot.

The best thing to to is download using the USB download option at Amazon. Select the eInk Kindle you own.

You will receive KF8. KF8 is the name used by Amazon. AZW3 is the name used by Calibre. Same file format.
