CONVERT KINDLE FOR MAC FILE TO PDF WINDOWS 7

in my Windows 7 book test above the total number of pages went up from 174 to 363 for the Kindle format.

The number of pages increases dramatically e.g.

However some PDF files may result in an increase in file size вЂ“ it depends on the format of the original.ДЈ. The file size of the converted PDF file will be different to the original вЂ“ in my test conversion of the free Windows 7 Guide e-book (previously featured here) the file size decreased from 24MB down to 11MB in default mono mode (22MB in color mode). Continue with step 6 by pressing Enter to start conversion.Дў.

Now type Yes press Enter вЂ“ this sets the color to full color instead of mono.

Before pressing Enter in step 6, type the letter c then press Enter.

K2pdfopt converts color PDF files to mono by default (more suitable for e-readers) but you can choose to keep full color if you wish: Tip: the developer has an excellent set of help pages here with illustrated pictures of each step in the process and more details on all the options вЂ“ well worth a look.ДЎ. There are many other options in the interactive menu that you can use to tweak the settings and sizes etc further. This converted file is optimized for viewing on Kindles and other mobile readers with 6-inch screens (if you left the options as default) or for viewing on Smartphones if you performed step 4. When finished, a new converted PDF file with _k2opt at the end of the filename is created in the same directory as the original file. Depending on the size and type of PDF file (and speed of your computer) the conversion process may take a few minutes.ДЁ. Press Enter to use all the other default settings and start conversionД§. Type 250 then press Enter вЂ“ this sets the default size for smartphonesД¦. To optimize for Smartphones вЂ“ type the letter o then press Enter. To optimize for Kindle (or other e-readers) skip straight to step 6ДҐ. You will be met by a slightly daunting array of conversion options but donвЂ™t worry, you shouldnвЂ™t have to use most of them!Д¤. Now just drag and drop your PDF file onto the k2pdfopt icon to open the program (accept any user control prompt to run it)ДЈ. Download k2pdfopt from the developer here (Windows, Mac, Linux versions available) and save it to your desktopДў.

K2optpdf is independent of language or fonts so it will work equally well on documents in any languageДЎ.

It has the advantage over other PDF converters in that it fully preserves the rendered PDF fonts and graphics from the original file, unlike programs that convert the PDF to an e-book format.

K2pdfopt works especially well on two-column or multi-column PDF/DJVU files such as technical journal articles but even single-column files will often be significantly improved and much easier to read.

Any kind of PDF/DJVU file (best if it has a primarily white background) can be converted.

K2pdfopt (Kindle 2 PDF Optimizer) is a free automated stand-alone (portable) conversion program.

Unlike most programs, K2pdfopt converts each page of the PDF to a bitmap, scans the bitmap for rectangular regions, then cuts and crops these regions before assembling them into multiple smaller pages вЂ“ it doesnвЂ™t mess about with fonts and scaling like so many other programs do. What is needed is a different approach such as that offered by the free K2pdfopt utility вЂ“ the simplest and best PDF converter I have found for both e-readers and smartphones. If you absolutely must use PDF, then be prepared for an output ranging anywhere from decent to unusable, depending on the input PDFвЂќ. Even the developers of Calibre (one of the best conversion programs) state: вЂњPDF is a really, really bad format to use as input. Unfortunately this process is very hard to do well with complex PDF files. There are dozens of PDF conversion programs available to convert PDFs to a format more suited to a Kindle (or smartphone) but most work in a similar way вЂ“ they basically вЂscanвЂ™ the PDF file into an editable format (like OCR, Optical Character Recognition) then shrink the page size, layout, text size etc and output back to PDF or another file format e.g.

However, this fixed layout makes a complex, multiple column PDF file designed with large text/fonts (for easy viewing on a PC or laptop) extremely difficult to вЂshrinkвЂ™ to fit a 6 inch Kindle display вЂ“ and even harder for a smartphoneвЂ™s tiny screen.

This makes PDFs ideal for printing (as one page will always be printed on a single sheet of paper) which is why so many user manuals and brochures are in PDF format.

with a fixed layout, page size and text placement. The PDF standard was designed to always display documents in the same manner i.e. Those methods may work fine for simple files, but more complex PDFs may look terrible on a KindleвЂ¦ Yesterday I reviewed 2 easy methods to transfer a PDF file to a Kindle, using integrated USB transfer and Kindle conversion. K2pdfopt is an easy to use PDF conversion program and produces PDF output files optimized for Kindle or smartphones.
