In my experience, I've found that the Kindle can convert PDFs pretty well as long as there is extractable text that's not too weirdly formatted (as a cursory test, try viewing a PDF and highlighting words. If you can do it, it's probably okay to convert). Otherwise, it's true that you'll probably run into sizing issues :(
Hey, thanks for the heads up. It's likely because I was matching the host string with "amazon.com". I just pushed a change that should fix that, so you may see the modal as you should now. It's possible there are still errors since I'll need more time to figure out how to scrape other countries' Amazon pages.
If something goes wrong, we can continue this over email at [email protected]. Thanks!
The snippet scrapes the Amazon site for information about your Kindle devices. It's possible that it's failing because of different Amazon UIs depending on the country. There should be a message letting you know that it failed.
Make sure you're on the Amazon site when you click the snippet. If it's successful, there should be a list of devices that you "pick" by clicking the names. Once you click the "Activate Kindlebox", that should be it.
Please email me at [email protected] if you're still having trouble!
That's true, I've had one myself :) But still, in some countries, the difference between 10 and 20 dollars could actually be significant. It's easy to forget that with so many smart phones in the US.
Is there functionality for importing docx? I use this feature all the time in Google Drive, and I think it definitely gives it an edge over Draft (although I love the idea!)
