As you've probably guessed, kindlepdfviewer(often abbreviated as kpv), is a document viewer for the Kindle. Not just for PDFs but also DjVu, XPS, CBZ, FB2, TXT, HTML, RTF, CHM, EPUB, DOC, MOBI, and ZIP files. The initial kindlepdfviewer was built by hawhill based on the mupdf source. Since then it has come a long way, based on requests and updates by hawhill, dpavlin, NuPogodi, trigan, chrox, kai, traycold, houqp and others on the mobileread forums.
