Answers.Text: MOBI format works but you may need to remove the *pdoc* tag so that it shows up on your kindle as a book instead of a personal document. Converting from EPUB to AZW3 is the newer Kindle format and generally works better.

  I figured it out as I had not received an answer:
  
  1. Download the open-source Calibre e-book management software from
     [here](https://calibre-ebook.com/download).
  2. Once it's installed, open Calibre and add an EPUB e-book to its
     library by clicking on the "Add books" button.
  3. After you have added the e-book to the Calibre library, select it,
     and then click the "Convert books" button.
  4. This will open a new window with a few options and formats to
     convert to.
  5. Select ".MOBI" for the format. This is important because .MOBI is
     compatible with Kindle unlike .EPUB.
  6. Once you've converted it, you can plugin your Kindle and use Calibre
     to send the .MOBI e-book version to your Kindle so you can read it
     there.
