After fiddling with a few of the settings here, we finally ended up with a PDF that was as clearly laid out as the original e-Book but playable on any device. However, the font size was huge, so we converted it again, but this time used the font size option on the PDF Output options screen to make it much smaller. For some reason, our book showed up twice in the list, but only one of them worked - we removed the other by right clicking it and selecting "remove book".Ī new window will open, laden with dozens of options to tailor the output. Click the "Select None" button, and then OK. Drag and drop every file associated with the book into the main Calibre window - as you can see in our screenshot, a warning will pop up about duplicates.

You'll notice that each book has several files associated with it. Now head back to File Explorer and navigate to the area on your Kindle that stores your books. Once you've got the serial number, type it into the Calibre window, removing any spaces as you go. To find where your serial, simply type "serial location", along with the model name of your Kindle, into Google. Finding the serial number varies depending on the version of Kindle you're using - on our older 4th Gen Kindle, the serial number was found on page two of the Kindle's "Settings" screen. Select the first entry "eInk Kindle ebooks", then click the green plus button in the new window. You'll see the DeDRM plugin double click it. Head back into Calibre's Preferences menu, then go to Advanced, then Plugins, then double click the line called "File type plugins". However, Kindle users will need to jump through a few extra hoop first. If you already have your books stored on your PC, simply drag and drop them into Calibre's main window.
