How do I format a file to become an eBook for Kindle?

I have a custom, uniquely designed book layout that exports perfectly as a fixed layout ePub but now I need to format this same file, for Kindle. I'm told I need a mobi format. The structure / overall design is lost when I use Amazon's Kindle Generator... any other suggestions? Time & assistance is greatly appreciated!! ~Kate

We are experiencing the same problem with the ebook for Kindle. The ePub file works beautifully for iBooks, but when we create the Mobi file thru Kindle upload, we had font issues, kerning issues as well as some images became distorted. We followed the instructions carefully, including insuring the fonts were all true type, but the problems still existed.
We also downloaded the Kindle Plug in for Adobe InDesign, but it doesn't want to work with CC. And we think we have to use CC to create the ePub file. Can anyone help?

    Yes the report painter report especially in the hierarchial format will not make much sense when you download to excel. Until now I also have not seen any solution to this.

    You can put your music anywhere, but it must be part of an iTunes library and iTunes needs to be running for the Apple TV to play it.

  • How can i format an external drive to be used for both windows and mac

    i recently bought a macbook pro and used bootcamo so as to be able to run win7 and mac. I now wish to have an external usb drive so as to backup and tranfer files between the two os's. How can I do this?         

    Firstly,
    There is a forum for MacBook Pro - not this. And for Boot Camp.
    You can:
    add Paragon HFS driver to Windows which works
    add Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X
    USB is of course slow and while people use it for backups and TimeMachine, that is one place where FW800, eSATA or USB3 would be better served.

  • How to set Pages and Numbers to become default applications for attachment?

    I installed Leopard and have just installed iWork.
    I started noticing that the applications of .doc and .xls that come in file attachments in my mail do not use Pages and Numbers as their default application.
    .doc uses TextEdit
    I copied the file to the desktop, changed the default app to Pages, but it still doesn't work. All new mails with .doc still uses TextEdit as default app.
    How to change this?

  • How can I inventory the file name, date, size, type for all my CDs into a readable file on my iMac running Maverick?

    I have many old CDs with files.  In order to organize and search them, I would like to make a searchable file listing all the documents on the CDs.  I once did this in DOS (it was a "list files" command).  Is there anyway to do it in OS X-- Maverick?  I thought Terminal would work, but what I've tried doesn't work.  Any ideas would be appreciated.  I am happy to purchase software that would do the work.

    Oh yeah! Very similar to that one is Print Window. I use it all the time.

    It costs $20 if you want all the extra features the free version doesn't have. But I've always used the free version. Nothing in the paid version I need.

  • How to get my photo files on the left panel for easy access?

    I was watching a informational video about adobe photoshop. I have been opening my pictures file from my computer and dragging the pictures from the my computer window to the project bin and then each picture pops up in a window overlapping eachtother. in the video i watched, she easily accessed her pictures from her computer files from a pane in the left side of adobe Can anyone help me? Im very new to this and need all the help i can get in the simplest terms thanks!

    I assume you are talking about Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor...
    There is a Project bin which is shown in the bottom by default and can be moved to left. Project Bin displays all the files currently open in Editor.

  • How can I assign image file name from Main() class

    I am trying to create library class which will be accessed and used by different applications (with different image files to be assigned). So, what image file to call should be determined by and in the Main class.
    Here is the Main class
    import org.me.lib.MyJNIWindowClass;
    public class Main {
    public Main() {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    MyJNIWindowClass mw = new MyJNIWindowClass();
    mw.s = "clock.gif";
    And here is the library class
    package org.me.lib;
    public class MyJNIWindowClass {
    public String s;
    ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon("C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/Desktop/" + s);
    public MyJNIWindowClass() {
    JLabel jl = new JLabel(image);
    JFrame jf = new JFrame();
    jf.add(jl);
    jf.setVisible(true);
    jf.pack();
    I do understand that when I am making reference from main() method to MyJNIWindowClass() s first initialized to null and that is why clock could not be seen but how can I assign image file name from Main() class for library class without creating reference to Main() from MyJNIWindowClass()? As I said, I want this library class being accessed from different applications (means different Main() classes).
    Thank you.

    Your problem is one of timing. Consider this simple example.
    public class Example {
        public String s;
        private String message = "Hello, " + s;
        public String toString() {
            return message;
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Example ex = new Example();
            ex.s = "world";
            System.out.println(ex.toString());
    }When this code is executed, the following happens in order:
    1. new Example() is executed, causing an object to constructed. In particular:
    2. field s is given value null (since no value is explicitly assigned.
    3. field message is given value "Hello, null"
    4. Back in method main, field s is now given value "world", but that
    doesn't change message.
    5. Finally, "Hello, null" is output.
    The following fixes the above example:
    public class Example {
        private String message;
        public Example(String name) {
            message = "Hello, " + name;
        public String toString() {
            return message;
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Example ex = new Example("world");
            System.out.println(ex.toString());
    }

  • How can I view a file with an *.apple extension?

    Hi all,
    I did a search and couldn't come up with any threads that may have discussed this. My apologies if I overlooked any results.
    Anyway, I was doing some file recovery on my SD card and this f2754624.apple file popped up at around 600mb. I'm guessing it was some video shot with the digi. It's kind of old and I'm kind of curious what it is haha.
    So any clue as to how I can open said file? Thanks in advance for any assistance I can obtain from you all.

    "not supported, or might have been damaged."
    That's key. If you're using Safari to download PDFs, it can do this.
    Trash the SPD file. It can't be repaired.
    Download the Adobe Reader FULL installer here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    Save the DMG to your downloads folder.
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
    Empty the trash.
    Download AppZapper (it's a free trial) and install it.
    Launch AppZapper, and drag the Adobe Reader app to the window.
    "Zap" it and anything else in the window to the trash.
    Empty the trash.
    Install Reader from the downloaded DMG and re-download the SPD file.

  • Passing Dynamic File Name to ODI nterface for processing to another system

    Hi,
    I need help regarding passing a Dynamically Name changing fixed length Flat File in ODI Interface. This interface is built for taking the Flat File as Input and process it to SQL Server by applying Data Mapping and transformations... The input Flat File Name is sequence generated for eg: OEORD1123.txt and next file will be OEORD1124.txt and it sits in Oracle Conc tier. How to pass the latest file name to ODI interface for processing
    Regards,
    Anil..

    Hi Guys...
    I would like to suggest a way.
    a) create a single interface with dynamic resouce name (a ODI variable) with a filter to the month column like:
    month_column = '#vCountMonth'
    b) in the refresh tab of a first variable (I named "vMonth"), use the following query: (varialbe should be alphanumeric, "not persistent")
    select to_char(to_date('#vCountMonth','MM'),'month') from dual
    c) create one more ODI variable (I named "vCountMonth"), alphanumeric, not persistent and at its refresh tab write:
    select lpad(to_char(#vCountMonth + 1), 2, '0') from dual
    d) now just create a package, drag and drop the objects in the following order:
    d.1) vCountMonth in set mode and set = 0 (zero)
    d.2) vCountMonth in refresh mode
    d.3) vMonth in refresh mode
    d.4) the interface
    d.5) vCountMonth in evaluate mode, evaluating "= 12"
    ==> if NO (KO, red line) link the KO line to d.2 step
    ==> a OK line is not necessary unless you have others steps after finish the evaluating
    Make any sense? That is a single loop to have the interface developed only one time.
    Please, remember to check each thread reply as Useful or Correct if they are useful to you...

  • What file type do I need for imovie?

    I know the answer may seem obvious, but I'm getting a bit confused! I thought I needed something like .DV for imovie and the short clips I uploaded from my camera which are saved as .MOV wouldn't work. However some do and some don't? What may be the reason for this?
    Is Quicktime Pro a more or less essential buy for converting files like these?
    Edited to add: I just saw there are quite a few questions like mine, however reading the answers I'm still not sure what I need to do. I'm not so intuned with all the jargon!
    Message was edited by: emixconnor

    I thought I needed something like .DV for imovie and the short clips I uploaded from my camera which are saved as .MOV wouldn't work.
    DV is a compression format specifically designed for editing and will work in any version of iMovie or any other Apple editor for that matter. MOV is just a file container. Whether or not an MOV file will import to iMovie '08 depends on what audio and video compression formats the file contains. IMovie looks for DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264 files for file import or DV, HDV, AVCHD, or MPEG2/AC3 for camcorder import.
    However some do and some don't? What may be the reason for this?
    As explained above, if you check the audio and video compression formats, you will note that the same formats keep falling into the "will" and "won't" import groups.
    Is Quicktime Pro a more or less essential buy for converting files like these?
    Not essential, but I would always recommend it -- especially if you plan to layer, mask, and/or scale video tracks. MPEG Streamclip essentially accesses the same QT components for conversions and is free. In addition, it can handle multiplexed compression formats and retain the audio. It just can't handle those areas mentioned above. As far as I am concerned, both are indispensable as I use then on almost a daily basis quick, little edits.
