Code:
<metadata>
<meta content="cover_id" name="cover" />
</metadata>
<manifest>
<item id="cover_id" href="images/cover.jpg" media-type="image/jpeg" properties="cover-image" role="doc-cover"/>
</manifest>
I tried changing and rewriting a bunch of times, but neither Calibre, Moon reader or my kindle recognize a cover. What I'm doing wrong? I'm using Epub3.
Thank you.
What's with all the[indent]? It seems to make the code block not display properly. I suggest you delete all of those indents in any code blocks you've used them.
