AZW3 to PALM conversion is the process of transforming an ebook file in Amazon Kindle's AZW3 format into an older PalmDOC/PRC-style PALM ebook format so it can be read on legacy Palm OS devices and compatible readers. This conversion typically remaps text, basic formatting, and metadata while adapting images and layout to PALM's more limited feature set.
