I had "help" to convert my PDF to ePub. They didn't send me the KPF,
but I eventually got Amazon Authors' Support to send it to me. She
warned it's not editable. I unzipped it and found my original PDF, plus
hundreds of "metadata" files that appeared to be mySQL stuff. And my
"helper" wants $$$ to correct a few typos that I had no trouble
correcting in the print-on-demand versions simply by uploading new
PDFs.
