I normally use PDF files for fiction I’ve written and there are no images or any kind of unusual formatting, just text. Will a PDF file be adequate for the Kindle, or would it pay to convert it to HTML? I do want it to look as professional as possible.

I am assuming that you don’t have an electronic version of your book.

If that’s the case, then you are going to have to get it in one of the following electronic formats: HTML, plain text (.txt) Microsoft Word (.doc, but not .docx), and Adobe Reader (.pdf).

Preferably the HTML format, which has the best conversion results.

There is no other way!

You may be able to scan it into the computer. There are software out there that allows you to edit it after you scan.

I would appreciate it if you would provide an answer to a query which I can’t seem to find anywhere.
I already have printed and bound copies of the book I want to publish. How do I forward the book as is to Kindle?
Please don’t tell me the bad news that I have to re-type the whole thing on line.
Thanks for your advice.
