Best Format For The Kindle?
What is the best Kindle format? I will be getting one soon, and all my eBooks are in PDF format, which is my favorite. They originally came in LIT, but I converted them.
Any and all answers are appreciated.
The Kindle can handle PDF files well. However, the best format for the Kindle is the Kindle format AZW, and you can also convert PDF files to Kindle format. See the section “Files Kindle Recognizes” on the official page here for what file formats the Kindle can support, and how to get PDF converted to Kindle format:

You can also easily convert these ebook formats from one to another, using software like calibre:

And guess you know, Amazon just released new models of the Kindle and it’s much better. I’ve mentioned quite a lot about the new Kindle and which model to choose (and where to get free books on the Kindle), in another answer here:
