How to load a PDF planner on a Kindle Scribe

To put a PDF planner on a Kindle Scribe, send the file with Send to Kindle from amazon.com/sendtokindle or by email. It arrives in your Library as a PDF that you can write on directly. A PDF copied over USB does not support writing on the page.

Steps

1. Open Send to Kindle. Go to amazon.com/sendtokindle on a computer and sign in with the Amazon account your Scribe uses.
2. Upload the PDF. Drop the planner on the page, keep Add to your library on and click Send. Files up to 200 MB are accepted.
3. Or send it by email. Email the PDF to your Scribe's Send to Kindle address from an approved address. Each email takes up to 50 MB.
4. Open it on the Scribe. Sync the Scribe, open the planner from your Library and write on the page.

Good to know

• Send the file with Send to Kindle, not over USB: Amazon says writing on the page is not supported for PDFs copied over USB-C.
• With a writing tool selected, the pen writes. Choose the Pointer tool to tap links and move between pages with the pen.
• Dark mode inverts text, images and the page background. If the planner shows on black, turn dark mode off.
• The 2025 Scribe can also import a PDF from Google Drive or OneDrive: tap the connections icon, pick the file and tap Import.
