I am wondering if there is another or better way to get the kindle
books? I have been telling my kindle for pc program to read them, which
downloads them, and then codex sees the tittle properly. If I look on
the kindle itself, I just numbers. Am I missing something simple?

Hi Grumpy Dave,
I have a better suggestion. You still purchase your Kindle books. Instead of
using the Amazon Kindle app, you can convert your files to another format of
your own choosing by using a program called Codex. I am placing the link
here. The program allows one to convert .pdf, .epub, .azw or whatever file
type the Amazon books are in, and other formats from one to another. For
example, you can even convert a .docx to a .txt or .rtf. It is pretty easy
to use and it can be run in the Windows Explorer, at least on Win7 machines,
through the context menu. You set your default file type for output and when
you select convert, your file is automatically converted to the file you
requested. There is also an option to choose another file type without
changing your default. For example, you found a magazine article you wanted
to read quickly..save it as a .txt and read it quickly. So, finally, here is
the link:

Oh yes, I used it yesterday and was informed there is a newer version. You
can update it directly from the program.

Hello,
A few years ago, Amazon put out a program that was to have made Books,
in the Kendal format, readable by using Amazon's Book reader for the PC.
I did download this Reader, but found it lacking and ended up not using
it.
Now that two or three years have gone by, does anyone on this list have
any recent experience with this Reader by Amazon?
Does it work? Are there issues I should know about? And of course,
does it work with Window Eyes or NVDA?
Thanks for any comments,
Grumpy Dave
