Want to change "Document" to "Book" on Kindle

Dash · 08-19-2023, 10:54 AM

Hello,

I used Calibre to convert a .mobi to .azw3 and port it over to my Kindle via USB. It opens and reads fine on the Kindle but it is classified as a "document" which means Vocabulary Builder doesn't work properly. There is no way to change the format to "Book" on the Kindle. How can I use Calibre to classify it correctly?

Thanks!

Thanks for the link. The quality check plugin didn't work for me, but Mobi Meta Editor did. So that's solved, at least. I wish there was a way to do it within the base Calibre program, though.
