Overall a helpful book, although I believe there are some missing items.1. Make sure you are using the default (Word 2007 and above) formatting template. If you are copying your text in from another document, you can accidentally bring the wrong formatting over and it will cause issues. I know. It just happened to me and it took three tries (and a lot of researching) to finally make Amazon happy with with that particular book.2. The easiest way to convert your Word document into a Kindle book (and then test it) is using Amazon's Kindle Previewer v2.75. It's a free tool that can be downloaded from Amazon. The way to do it is save your Word document as a filtered web page. Then open the Previewer and then, open your filtered web page. The previewer converts it into the mobi file and then it allows you to preview it in every possible Kindle viewer imaginable. Mobipocket.com's tool isn't necessary. When you are ready to publish the book, just upload the mobi file that the previewer created.(Author: You might want to consider adding these things to your manuscript. If you do, I'll come back and upgrade my review.)If you are just getting started with Kindle publishing, this is a pretty good resource.EDITED 3/4/13. As you can see from the comment below, the has just notified me that he has updated his book with the missing information. I appreciate that he took time to listen to this reader and add these topics. It has served to make the book even stronger than it was. As promised, I have upgraded my review. :-)
