Tips for EPUB to MOBI
- 01
Use a DRM-free EPUB
Encrypted books are rejected. Convert a copy you can open without a store account.
- 02
Keep pictures modest
JPEG, PNG, and GIF pictures are included, up to 40 images. PNG files are stored as JPEG.
- 03
Expect reflowed text
MOBI reflows chapter text. Fixed layouts, fonts, and embedded audio do not carry over.
- 04
Open it as MOBI
The download uses the .mobi extension. Renaming an EPUB to .mobi does not create this file.
