I don't buy books from B&N. Everything on my Nook is sideloaded with Calibre.
Purchased books come from Amazon and those I add those to Calibre as AZW3 files. Any cover problems there are solved with the conversion from AZW3 to ePub.
The problem would be books downloaded from Gutenberg, Standardebooks or somewhere like that. Books that are downloaded as ePub from the get-go. My process is usually:
- Download ePub and add to Calibre.
- Let Calibre find (or occasionally make) a better cover and slap that cover into Calibre
- Open the ePub with Sigil
- Add the Calibre cover file with Sigil (the + button)
- Use the Add Cover tool in Sigil
- Save
- Send to Nook using Calibre
Adding books to my Kobo always works as the conversion from ePub to Kepub fixes any issues. It's only on the Nook where the original ePub is moved without conversion that covers are an issue.
To fix the Hunchback of Notre Dame I mentioned earlier, I had Calibre convert from ePub to ePub. That fixed it. But I'd like to find the root problem.
