[Athen] How to modify font size of PDFS in Kindle?

[Susan Kelmer]

There are several back-door ways to do this using websites and apps for Windows.  A simple google search for “convert PDF to kindle format” should get you some videos and how-tos on how to do it.

Email me privately if you want more information.

Subject: [Athen] How to modify font size of PDFS in Kindle?

Hello, I am new to this resource, and appreciate any suggestions you may have.


I am a Student Accommodations Coordinator working with a student who utilizes their Kindle device to enlarge font sizes of their texts. The student can magnify the text, but Kindle allows the student to not have to scroll back and forth.

I have searched for alternative versions through Access Text and Bookshare, but have not found it listed.

The textbook was provided in a PDF version, however, that is not alterable on Kindle.

Does anyone have any suggestions or other advice?

Thank you very much for your time and help,

Amy
