I'll bet! You're even trying to help me overcome my reservations about viewing the PDF format! :)
Ok, I'll try to use the Caliber to convert the PDF files into MOBI format and see how it works....thank goodness you're not a salesman in a boutique. I'd probably end up buying every piece of clothing in the store! :)

Yes, Kindle is lousy at displaying PDFs (you have to zoom in to each section of the PDF page to properly view it, no text-to-speech and dictionary search capabilities) - although that is more of a software hurdle than hardware, as can be seen from improved PDF functions in the latest system update. But to me it's still way inferior compared to reading a nicely illustrated PDF on an iPad or coloured devices, because of the images and formatting.
But, if your PDFs are mainly just novels or words, there would be no problem, as you can easily convert it using Calibre - which is the best ebook format converter around - to Kindle-supported MOBI format.
You can also easily re-download your PDF documents in MOBI format, as ebook readers are proliferating and lots of materials are available in this format. Even if this format is not available, you can get those in the formats of EPUB, LIT or even HTML or TXT, which all convert perfectly well to MOBI using Calibre. |
