@bettyruthe - in Windows Explorer Locate the Calibre2 folder in -- Program Files (if you use 64bit calibre) or Program Files (X86) (if you use 32bit calibre) - keep the window open

In main GUI program (library manager) go to Preferences->Miscellaneous and click Open configuration directory that will open your Calibre Config folder in Windows Explore - it'll be something like c:users\<you>\appdata\roaming\calibre - keep the window open.

Close calibre. So now you will have two windows explorer windows - something like this

If you don't have a resources subfolder in the configuration folder create an empty one - I'll assume that you didn't have one

So open the two resources folders and you should see something like this

Now you need to COPY the jacket folder from the Program Files/resources (left) to the Configuration/resources (right) so you end up with this

OK we've finished with Program Files so close that window and open the jacket folder in the Config Zone - there are two files

stylesheet.css
template.xhtml


You need to edit template.xhtml, but first you must remove read only, right click the file and select properties - uncheck Read Only and click OK

You need an editor other than Notepad - a lot of us use Notepad++, viz

While I was there I made the change so I've attached the template.xhtml file (it's in a zip - can't upload xhtml), try to do the change yourself - but if you get into trouble just use the one below

How do people cope with Windows Explorer, it really is pathetic.
