Hi,

I don't know if anyone can help me but I have to ask.

I make a lot of covers for my fanfiction and I have the problem that Sony makes a border left and right, and with that stretches the cover, when using the book cover in sleeping mode. Even when I use Sony's own resolution size 758 x 1024 (96 dpi)!

I can solve this my actually not keeping aspect ratio when making the epub. That will stretch the image in sleeping mode to full size (which is actually the right size!), ignoring here that the image on the first page of the book is then stretched too (this side is not THAT important for me).

I'm asking because I'm thinking about making my covers wider for fitting full size on my tablet and was thinking about using SVG on the cover to slice left and right when on a smaller divice like my reader (I would optimize my covers to work both ways of course). But that doesn't work if I can't solve the problem of Sony stretching the cover when going into sleeping mode if I want it or not.

Has anyone any ideas for me?

Mini
