I know that the Kindle doesn't support Ade.

I have Launchpad and Librerator to improve pdf handling and allow epub handling.

It would be a pain to have to find another large-screen button-based e-reader for each format. Most e-readers these days are small-screen and touch-based or are apps for tablets which are painfully-bright-screen and touch-based nightmares.

It's possible, but not with DRM in place. You have to remove DRM.

You have to trip the DRM and convert to Mobi.

Please see https://apprenticealf.wordpress.com/ to learn about stripping the DRM.
