In the era of mobile Internet, many people like to use Kindle to read, because it is portable and can be used anytime, anywhere. Can the kindle read pdf files?How do I read a PDF file on my Kindle?
First of all, Kindle supports reading PDF files, but due to the limitations of Kindle native readers, there are many problems with reading PDF files on Kindle. For example, font scaling is inconvenient, page size cannot be adapted, and sometimes even PDF file transfer fails. The first two will degrade our reading experience and make us have to squint to read, while the latter will directly lead to the inability to read.
If you want to read PDF files on your Kindle and have a good reading experience, there are three ideas to choose from. Either install a better reader on your Kindle by technical means, convert the file to a format that is more compatible with Kindle native readers, or process PDF assets yourself before importing them into your Kindle to make them more suitable for reading on your Kindle.
For those with strong technical skills, you can choose to jailbreak the system of your kindle, and after jailbreaking, kindle can install third-party plug-ins. For example, the popular KO Reader can selectively crop and reformat large PDF files for a better reading experience. The operation of jailbreaking is cumbersome and there are certain risks, so it is recommended that you do it under the guidance of professionals.
If you don't want to jailbreak, converting PDF files to a more compatible Kindle format is also a good option. It is recommended that you use the tool of UPDF, which is a domestic PDF editing software, which not only has basic functions such as PDF editing, annotation, format conversion, etc., but also the latest AI editing functions are also very powerful.
Convert PDFs to a format suitable for reading
Once the UPDF is installed, open the PDF document you want to convert. Find the Export PDF button in the column menu on the right to export the PDF to other formats. At present, UPDF supports export to 9 formats, including Word document, PPT, Excel**, CSV, RTF, TXT, XML, HTML, etc.
We convert PDF documents to txt format, export them to txt text, and then import txt text to kindle for reading. At this point, we can easily change the font size on the Kindle.
The PDF is cropped to a size that is suitable for reading
In fact, many times the poor reading experience of PDF documents on Kindle is caused by the compression of the content display area due to excessive margins, and it is not easy to adjust on Kindle. We can use the cropping function of updf to remove the extra blank space in the document, and then upload the pdf document to kindle.
Or use UPDF to open the PDF document you need to edit, and find the Crop Page tool in the left menu. Then select the area you want to crop.
For books with a more uniform format, select Multi-page Cropping to crop all pages in the PDF document.
After selecting the area, click the crop button in the upper right corner to complete the cropping operation, and finally save the PDF document before importing it into your kindle.
