I have all seven Harry Potter books in e-pub format (converted from PDF).

Every one of them has now a front cover for the first page inside the e-book viewer. All of them except one, takes up the whole screen as a front, first-page. This is what I want.

One of them does not take up the whole page and instead is inset with large white margins around it.

I have tried to get another cover from the metadata, but it does not give me any other options.

Does anybody know how I can make the cover that I have already the full size of the page and do away with the white margins around it?

Another question is; if I download a cover to my computer from the web, does anybody know how I can then add that cover to my Calibre's metadata and also the first page of my e-book viewer?

Thanks

HB
