The internal reader of COPS was meant for "quick browsing" a book, not really for reading it. The creator of COPS meant to replace the reader, but never finished it (I think he got on with life and work).

A half cover means that the cover is too big (too many pixels) to display on your screen. And as far as I know vertical scrolling through the pages of a book is not possible. Only horizontal, just like a real book.

When I want to read a book in a browser I almost always use "epubreader". This is a browser extension for firefox, chrome and chrome-based browsers like Brave. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=211

Another option is using a self hosted reader like ePubViewer https://github.com/pgaskin/ePubViewer and others.
