Your Kindle Email Address The email address associated with your Kindle is free of charge, and it is unique to you \u2013 so it\u2019s not the same address given to any other owner of a Kindle. If you are not sure what your individual Kindle email address is, go to the web link www.amazon.com\/myk \u2013 and then click on the section called \u201cManage Your Devices.\u201d Inside that section look for Personal Document Setting.

That lets you use functions within Kindle that you typically do not have with regular PDF documents. You can change the font size, for instance, which is a great feature if you like larger print for easier reading or if you have a particular font that is your favorite. You can also perform annotations as you read that PDF document, which is a valuable tool for those who are doing research or are students who want to make notes as they read.
