AZW3 to DBK conversion is the process of transforming an ebook file in Amazon's AZW3 (KF8) format into the DBK format used by certain ebook readers and library/cataloging systems. This conversion repackages the book's HTML/CSS, images, metadata and table-of-contents into DBK while attempting to preserve layout, fonts, and reading structure.
