Only e-books in the proprietary KFX format support these features and currently only Amazon sourced e-books downloaded directly from Amazon to apps and devices are available in this format. Page Flip, improved manga experience (fast continuous page turns, pan/zoom, crop margins, page spreads), and Guided View for comics provide improved navigation within a book's contents. Enhanced Typesetting is required for the correct rendering of books in Arabic, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Malayalam, Tamil, and Traditional Chinese. Enhanced Typesetting allows improved rendering of e-book content using hyphenation, kerning and ligatures. The same effect can be achieved in older versions of calibre using the Hyphenate This! plugin.)Īmazon has added support for several advanced features in newer kindle reading apps and firmware. It is less difficult to use and the book format it works with is compatible with more devices and software. (Note: If you only want somewhat better typography when reading Kindle books then using the 'Add soft hyphens' option of the 'Polish books' command in calibre version 4.6 or higher should be considered as an alternative to using KFX. Amazon converts personal documents delivered to a Kindle Scribe using send-to-kindle to KFX format so that the sticky note annotation feature will function. Kindle Scribe owners do not need to use this plugin.

This allows books obtained from sources other than Amazon to be read with Enhanced Typesetting, multi-thumbnail Page Flip, non-justified alignment, continuous scrolling, page curl, Guided View for comics, and sticky notes (on Kindle Scribe). The purpose of the KFX Output plugin is to convert e-books into KFX files that can be sideloaded to newer Kindle apps and devices.
