Kindle Converter converts paper books in ebook for Kindle but it is hard – Macity (Blog)

With the new software of Amazon Kindle Converter you can convert any paper book in ebook format Kindle. For several reasons the idea is interesting but impractical: the user has to scan the entire book in fact

Kindle Convert is a good idea but it is impractical: this is the new software released by Amazon that lets you convert any paper book to turn it into ebook format Kindle, unfortunately all the operations of scanning the actual book are on the user.

First, we note that at least for the moment Kindle Convert is only available for Windows PC computers anyway always Amazon offers its software and apps for all major platforms, so it is very likely that in the future also Kindle Converter can be released in a version for Mac. ll software can be used in combination with any scanner capable of generating final images in jpeg, tiff and PDF course. The other requirements are modest: from 300 to 600 DPI resolution from 8-bit grayscale or black and white up to the 24bit color depth. In practice, then you can use any type of scanner on the market or even dated.

Of course the part almost impossible to offer users consists in having to scan each page of the paper book that you want to convert to ebook format Kindle, operation with traditional scanners requires the acquisition of one page or two pages simultaneously. There are scanners that turn the pages automatically but are not widespread and in some cases are offered at prices supported.

The fact that Kindle Converter is now only for PC and requires so much manual labor and time by User represent two major drawbacks but could be solved in the future. The ultimate goal remains still interesting: with the conversion in the ebook are obtained advantages and extra features that only digital can offer, such as for example the index selectable with a tap, the ability to search out all the text, the possibility of zoom in and out the characters, the availability in the Amazon cloud and from there to all devices and your computer.

Not only Kindle Convert serves not only to users who already have a number of books and papers do not want to shell out even more money to buy the digital version. The real use more consistent is when you are in possession of old books, rare or simply out of print, with color images or text to which the user is linked to emotional reasons, such as a special book with a dedication of a author or a loved one.

Convert Kindle for PC is available in discount, only $ 19 (about € 16) instead of the list price of $ 49.
