📚 Buy my new book, 22 Tiny Lessons That Changed My Life In 2022: geni.us/DSY1GqG
In this video, I show you the new (and best) way to send PDFs, EPUBs, or any other personal document to your Kindle using the new Send to Kindle website.
Send to Kindle Website: www.amazon.com/gp/sendtokindle
Hi there!
It’s great to meet you 🥰
My name is Maneetpaul Singh, but my friends call me Maneet (pronounced muh-neet). I'm a bookworm from Connecticut who loves tech. When I bought my first e-reader in 2020, I began reading more than I ever had before. I’ve made it my mission to help people fall in love with reading through Book Tech.
Think of me like the MKBHD of books.
There are three things I want you to know.
(1) If you'd like to read a new nonfiction book with me every month, join my book club with a community of 1,000+ bookworms: go.maneetpaul.com/book-club
(2) If you’re struggling to build a daily reading habit and want to know how I became a bookworm, check out my short book titled Just One More Chapter: geni.us/GQX7rKe
(3) If you just want to chat, email me anytime hello@maneetpaul.com. I personally respond to every email.
Thanks so much for being here.
Happy reading!

If you are here and send epub to your kindle and send to kindle failed to send your file to your kindle, convert epub to Mobi and from Mobi to epub and send it again. It works. I don't know why, but it works. You are welcome.

Hello Brother..I have a Question go you and I'd really Glad if you could Answer it. In The Year 2021 and 2022 I bought lots of Physical Book's and Never really looked into this Kindle Tablets and all..Now That I feel Interested in and I have So many EPUB Book's I Added to My Google Play Book's..They work Just fine.. Now I'm planning to Buy this Kindle Tablet and I'm really thinking about some Money Saving.. Are these Epub Book's that I download from Z Library and Lib..Would they work fine Just as those Amazon Book's on Kindle Device.. Because that would be a Life saver..I don't want My Device to be Messed up or Chances of any Virus or malfunction to it if I do that..

@spocksvulcanbrain Жыл бұрын

It would be very helpful if you went over the best way to format the file before you make the PDF. I get the fact that sending it over is now easy but sounds like the formatting should be reviewed closely first. Can you create a video about that? Exactly what formatting is optimal? How about the table of contents, Title pages, graphics/artwork and book cover? How are those done?

@Maneetpaul Жыл бұрын

I haven't experimented with this too much myself. But from what I can tell, having a TOC and other front matter is not a problem. Where things got a bit weird for me was when I added a header/footer to every page. Thanks for the video idea, I'll keep that in mind for the future!

Does this mean that if you buy a book, an EPub file from a webside, that you now can read it on a kindle without problems. I’m new to the whole ereader world and thought about buying a kindle paperwhite but then heard that you couldn’t read any other books than the ones kindle offer on their bookstore… Isn’t that the case anymore?

@laurahicks5083 Жыл бұрын

It’s my understanding that kindle doesn’t support epubs with DRM. If it’s an epub without DRM, it should work. I’d assume many EPUBs you bought would have some sort of DRM on them though. In that case, you’d have to use adobe digital editions to transfer them onto an ereader. Adobe digital editions isn’t compatible with kindle devices. For what it’s worth, I think a kobo would be the best device in that case.
