So, thank you, Amazon, for an amazing new tool! As a client of mine said (after I told him how to use it to create a quick review ebook): “It’s like a little piece of magic from the gods. I’m keeping the old version on my other computer specifically for that task. If I see a question mark or gibberish, I know the character is unsafe and I have to find a substitute. When I have questions about whether or not a particular character or symbol will render across the board in all devices, the old version of the Kindle Previewer allows me to do that by viewing the file in DX mode. The only downside I’ve discovered is that it’s no longer a good tool for what I call bizarre character checks. It takes just a second, so it’s no hassle. The program no longer automatically creates a mobi file to place on your computer. It won’t be a commercial quality ebook and it won’t build the internal navigation guide, but it does allow you to check your styling and the mobi file can be loaded onto your Kindle or tablet for proofreading. Click File > Open Book and select a Word doc and the program will convert it into a mobi file. No more need for converting the doc first in MobiPocket and then converting the prc file. This is essential for checking alignment and making sure such things as headers aren’t so oversized they look stupid on a small screen.įor those of you, my dear readers, with a Do-It-Yourself frame of mind, this version also converts Word docs. It also gives a great rendering of a smart phone screen. The display is big and clear and along with the “Kindle” view there are thumbnails of individual page screens.Īlong with a much easier, clearer to understand user interface (everything you need is right there in a menu panel on the left side of the screen), it also does some nifty tricks. Then I got a brand new computer and when I downloaded the Kindle Previewer, I got the newest version.Īnd oh my God, Amazon, what have you done? Look at this! For some tasks it was essential, but I never fully trusted it to give me a hundred percent true rendering of my ebooks. It looked awful and the screen size couldn’t be adjusted. Once the export is completed you will get an export. On the Kindle Previewer menu, click File > Export and save this file as type: Books (.mobi) - to sideload on older Kindle devices (.mobi). As for viewing a book on the computer? Forget it. The Kindle Previewer will start converting your file, once it finishes you will be able to preview your book. It had some useful features and it was a quick way to convert an epub file into a mobi file, and a sort of quick way to convert a Word doc into a mobi file so I could load it onto a Kindle or tablet. Have to say, I was never much impressed with it. Kindle Previewer is a useful application that will emulate the Kindle interface, enabling you to read ebooks easily with some additional functions.I’ve been using Amazon’s Kindle Previewer app ever since I started formatting ebooks. It makes it easy to read ebooks and do what you want without too many problems.

You can rotate the screen, change the font size, and stretch the edges to the dimensions you want. There will also be various functions and additional settings with Kindle Previewer.
