Though I am still puzzled at the notion that I apply a semantic to an image in the Images folder, as opposed to the xhtml file containing it. (And no, Hitch, you never, never told me any such thing.) But in fact I have never applied a "cover" semantic to the xhtml file, because it's already so labeled.
I could swear that we had this discussion over at the KDP forums, nj, but I've posted there thousands of times. I could very easily be mistaking a discussion with someone else, for a chat with you. If I didn't, my apologies. I certainly wasn't hiding it. At least, not intentionally. (There are things that we do, about which I see questions both here and there, that I don't answer. Admittedly. I suck that way. But this one, I know I've answered a bunch of times. Where, might be the question, however. Again: my apologies.)

Of course my technical skills pale beside yours. That's precisely why I'm qualified to write a guidebook. It's not engineers who write tech manuals, not in successful companies.
You confuse me with this, but I'll defer to you, as I certainly don't write manuals for anyone. Other than my long-suffering crew, which objects to MOST of what I give them. :-)
