Amazon comes in the help of the education sector and this week, the company released a tool which is very useful if you want to learn. Its name is Kindle Textbook Creator and it makes it very easy to transform PDF files into e-book format which is much more easy to use and to handle. This way, those who apply this can organize very fast and efficient stuff like graphs, equations, charts or anything else you might find in a textbook.
They hope at important profit
Besides this, users will get a variety of Kindle tools which can become very useful to them. Need some examples of these? Then, here you go: multicolor highlighting tool, a notebook feature to capture key passages, a dictionary/Wikipedia lookup function, and flashcards. Important to note that once bought, the Kindle Textbook can be read on all kind of devices, without mattering if they use Amazon, Apple or Android operating systems. Amazon also hopes to take some advantage from this tool as in the future they might get a cut of profit because it is known that the overall textbook industry generates in the United States around 10 billion dollars per year!
