Abstract: E-book readers, such as the Kindle, are becoming more popular due to their reduced size and weight, wide availability, low cost, and ease of transferring material.While only a limited number of engineering texts are currently available for the Kindle, a Kindle can display pdf files, which in principle would allow the display of a variety of engineering content.However, when a pdf file is viewed on a Kindle, the text and figures often become so small that they are unreadable.While the Kindle can enlarge portions of a viewed page, but scrolling across and up and down the enlarged page becomes problematic.In this paper, I will discuss several methods to prepare engineering content for the Kindle.
