2.2 Creating Kindle Books In-House Using Kindle Publisher Tools

Publishers can create Kindle books in-house from Adobe InDesign content, HTML, 
XHTML, and EPUB files by using the Kindle Publisher tools. Amazon officially 
supports these tools to convert files to Kindle Format 8. Kindle files created 
with these tools are designed to be compatible with current and future Kindle 
devices and applications. Files created with third-party software may not work 
properly on current or future Kindle devices and applications.
