Does anyone know if I can use Kindle format for my own use?
I want to send, say, a chapter to be read by a fellow hopeful, and receive the same from them.
I know the format is the property of a company, but I can't readily see if one can use it for one's own work.

That's exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks.
I'd just seen the Improved PDF handling, so that was a step in the right direction - however, I don't suppose anyone in the world but me will be using .WPD much longer. I just can't wean myself away from my trusty WP 8. :rolleyes:
