Cover
ePUB books support the display of a cover page or image. This format allows users to select a cover image via the Target Settings dialog. Additionally, users may customize the cover page by creating overrides for the Pages\Cover.asp page template.
When creating your cover page and image, keep the following points in mind:
*eBook icons
*Adobe Digital Editions uses the cover page for the eBook icon
*Apple iBooks and Lexcycle Stanza use the cover image for the eBook icon
*ePublisher will embed the selected cover image into the cover page to ensure correct operation across platforms
*Cover image limitations
*Certain readers, such as the Apple iBook reader, prefer images with a 3x4 aspect ratio. Otherwise, the eBook will not display a custom icon in iTunes.
*Certain readers, such as the Apple iBook reader, prefer 600x800 pixel images. Otherwise, the eBook will not display a custom icon in iTunes.
