In my first post I mentioned it occurred in other viewers as well as the Kindle, so the fix I am after is for epub. It looks like there is no fix for Kindle.
There's actually no fix for most vendors. Almost all vendors treat the front cover differently--Kobo, Nook, Apple.

If it is possible to fix this in epub, I would appreciate the code to use. Thank you.
Well, if it's to be read locally, yes.

Images below are same book but using the Calibre e-Book reader on my pc. I have also uploaded the scrambled book if anyone wants to check...
I also wanted to mention, about this:

Quote:
When I convert to Mobi and send to Kindle App on iPad, it also displays the padding.

Never send a MOBI to an iOS device to preview as a Kindle eBook. The preview is totally worthless; you'll see what is effectively a KF7 (primitive) version of the file. In KP3, convert the file to AZK and then use a USB cable, connected to a computer, connected to iTunes, to go to Sharing--Kindle and drop the AZK file there. (If you search the net, you can find illustrated instructions on this.)

Then and only then will you see something remotely close to what a MOBI in K4iOS will look like.

ETA: Vis, rear covers in eBooks-here's what I tell my customers: https://www.booknook.biz/ebook-conve...ot-be-embedded
