Hi.

I've entered a cover image of 1400 x 1900 pixels (either jpg or .png format) in the Metadata Page of an eBook in Calibre.
After converting that eBook to ePub I noticed that the cover image was blurred.
When going into the source code of the ePub file I saw that the cover.jpeg image was reduced to 873 x 1186 pixels.

How come?

Is there a setting in Calibre were I can state that the cover must not be reduced but keep the original size?
