Hi, you can probably replace caliber with Stanza in the instructions given. That app is completely accessible.

Re: How to read Kindle Books in iBooks
That was my thought as well. But Stanza would have to have the options discussed in that article. I'd mess with the app and report back, but I don't have the time. If someone else substitutes Stanza in the process successfully, I'd love to hear about it.

Re: How to read Kindle Books in iBooks
Ricardo Walker wrote: you can probably replace caliber with Stanza in the instructions given. Did you actually read the instructions? Because the method described for removing the DRM from Kindle books uses Calibre plug-ins, and I'm pretty sure Stanza doesn't have the same capabilities. I'm not sure on the most accessible way to decrypt Kindle e-books on OS X, but I do know that Calibre has a command line interface, usable from Terminal, which I use all the time. If you do manage to strip the DRM from the .azw Kindle file using some other software, you can convert it to ePub from the command line with the following Calibre command: ebook-convert /path/to/original.mobi /path/to/new.epub Or, if your DRM removal software doesn't rename files to .mobi: ebook-convert /path/to/original.azw /path/to/new.epub This will not, I repeat not, remove any DRM. You need to find alternative scripts or tools to manage that. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: How to read Kindle Books in iBooks
Hello. To the best of my knowledge, Calibre cannot be made accessible without a total rewrite, as the toolkit used to display the text is not accessible in itself. In windows, and I strongly suspect on the Mac's terminal as well, however, the command line tools are accessible and fairly easy to use. I hope that's of some use.

Re: How to read Kindle Books in iBooks
Very true. I keep hoping that accessibility is fixed whenever Calibre updates, but nope. Worse, I can't expain to the developers what exactly the problem is other than a vague, Turn on VoiceOver and shut your eyes. All you'll hear is unknown, and you won't be able to interact.
