About AZW4
Amazon brought Print Replica to Kindle in 2011 for textbooks and other books whose layout matters, like cookbooks and children's books: instead of text that reflows, the book keeps its printed pages exactly. They're named .azw4 and open in Kindle's apps.
Inside, an AZW4 is a Mobipocket file whose text is a table of the files it carries, and the first of them is a PDF of the book's pages. Books Amazon sells are locked with its DRM.
Filepeek takes the PDF out of the book and shows it in its PDF viewer, page for page with search and thumbnails, and Export saves it as a PDF. A book locked with DRM says so instead of opening.

Questions
Why doesn't my AZW4 open?
Books bought from Amazon are locked with DRM to Kindle's apps, and Filepeek says when a book is. Books without DRM open.
Can I save it as a PDF?
Yes. Choose Export, then Save as PDF, and you get the PDF the book carries, page for page.
Why doesn't the text reflow on my phone?
A Print Replica book is its printed pages, so it shows them as they are. Zoom in, or turn your phone sideways for wider pages.
