[{"step":"Prepare your markdown document. Ensure it includes clear headings (using #, ##, ###) for chapters and sections. If you have images, use standard markdown image syntax (e.g., ). Save the file with a .md extension.","tip":"Use tools like Typora or VS Code with a markdown preview extension to verify the document structure before conversion."},{"step":"Run the conversion command or prompt in your AI agent (e.g., Claude). Replace [MARKDOWN_FILE_PATH] with the path to your markdown file and [OUTPUT_FILENAME] with your desired EPUB name. For example: 'Convert the markdown document /docs/quarterly_report.md into quarterly_report_q3.epub.'","tip":"If your document is long, consider breaking it into smaller sections (e.g., one EPUB per chapter) for easier reading on Kindle."},{"step":"Review the generated EPUB file. Open it in a Kindle app or device to check for formatting errors, broken links, or misaligned images. Adjust the markdown source if needed and re-run the conversion.","tip":"Use the Kindle Previewer tool (available for free from Amazon) to test the EPUB before distribution."},{"step":"Distribute the EPUB file to your team or stakeholders. Share the download link via email, Slack, or your preferred collaboration tool. For large teams, consider hosting the file on a shared drive or document management system.","tip":"If distributing internally, use a tool like Notion or Google Drive to track who has downloaded the file and when."}]
