Answer:
If you don't like [email protected], try Mobipocket Creator:Download and install http://www.mobipocket.com/en/DownloadSoft/DownloadCreator.asp.Open the application. On the right side, you'll see "Import From Existing File". Click on 'PDF'.Choose the file (your PDF) and select a folder to place the converted ebook. Click on 'Import'.OPTIONAL: On the left, you'll see "Metadata". Click on that, edit info like title/author, and then click 'Update'.Browse to the folder. You should see a bunch of images and files. All you need is yourbook.prc.Use the USB dongle to plug in your Kindle and put the PRC file into the Documents folder. Safely remove the Kindle and your book should be there.

I've not had any problems reading PDF files on my Kindle. Here's what I do: 1. Save PDF on computer. 2. Connect Kindle to computer. 3. Open email. Address it to [email protected] . Do NOT put any text in the Subject line or in the body of the email (when I do, it doesn't work). Attach PDF file to email and send. 4. Receive an email (in about 30 seconds) from Amazon Kindle Support. The email says, "[your email address] has sent the following files" and then has a link that looks like a link to the PDF file -- but it is a link to the AZW file that they converted it to. 5. Save link from email to computer. 6. In Windows Explorer, copy the AZW file to your Kindle's Documents folder. 7. Disconnect Kindle and read!
