Go to http://validator.idpf.org/ and upload your EPUB files that do not have cover art. If it doesn't pass the test, it's not a valid EPUB.
As a highly experienced computer programmer I say you should keep this in mind: Most publishers do no know what they are doing when they convert books to EPUB. They are likely not hiring computer people to do the conversion as I've come across 5+ EPUB books (where the paper version was by an experienced author) with many errors in spelling.
I also have a theory that some illegal EPUB files are being created by kids from a PDF, using OCR software, and the EPUBs also contain a lot of errors. |
