APNX
----
apnx files are used by the Amazon Kindle (firmware revision 3.1+) to
map pages from a print book to the Kindle version. Integers within
the file are big-endian.
Layout
------
bytes content comments
4 00010001 Format identifier. Value of 65537 little-endian.
4 start of next The offset after ending location of the first header.
Starts a new sequence of header info
4 length Length of first header
N first header String containing content header
Starts next sequence
2 unknown Always 1
2 length Length of second header
2 page count Total number of bytes after second header that
represent pages. This total includes bytes that
are ignored by the pageMap.
2 unknown Always 32
N second header String containing the page mapping header
4*N padding The first number given in the page mapping header indicates the number of 0 bytes.
4*N page list
Content Header
--------------
The content header is a string enclosed in {} containing key, value pairs.
content comments
contentGuid Guid.
asin Amazon identifier for the Kindle version of the book.
cdeType MOBI cdeType. Should always be EBOK for ebooks.
fileRevisionId Revision of this file.
Example:
{"contentGuid":"d8c14b0","asin":"B000JML5VM","cdeType":"EBOK","fileRevisionId":"1296874359405"}
In devices with KF8 support, we're seeing an extended content header (which seems to be required by some FW versions for KF8 files, like FW 3.4):
format Mobi version. MOBI_8 for KF8, MOBI_7 for legacy mobi files.
acr Palm DB name
Example:
{"contentGuid":"f2fc7597","asin":"B003M68YKM","cdeType":"EBOK","format":"MOBI_8","fileRevisionId":"1342776186889","acr":"CR!1F5WDHWWVN4Y78MA87Z13H9K6RKE"}
Page Mapping Header
-------------------
The page mapping header is a string enclosed in {} containing key, value pairs.
content comments
asin The ISBN 10 for the paper book the pages correspond to
pageMap Three value tuple. Looks like: "(N,N,N)"
1) Number of bytes after header that starts the page numbering sequence
2) unknown
3) unknown
Example:
{"asin":"1906694184","pageMap":"(4,a,1)"}
Page List
---------
The page list is a sequence of offsets in the uncompressed HTML. Each
value is the beginning of a new page. Each entry is a 4 byte big endian
int. The list is ordered lowest to highest.
