: Re: What is the native pixel resolution of the viewable area on a Kindle Paperwhite 2 when displaying a .pdf file? My goal is to produce files which, when displayed, are rendered 1:1, pixel-for-pixel,

To prevent the images from scaling you should set the width of the image in pixels rather than in, eg, 100%. It appears that the Kindle Paperwhite is 4.6 inches wide at 212 ppi (source), which comes to an unlikely 975.2 pixels wide—but it's a place to start. I would suggest setting image width (or width of containing div) to 970 px for starters. If it's distorted, then there is probably a hard-coded margin for the page of greater than 2 pixels, so reduce a small amount and try again.

Note that specifying the pixel size will mean that on other Amazon devices, the image will not resize to fit the screen—iPad and iPhone Kindle app users may not be happy with the end result.
