Hello!

I have just splitted a big pdf file, containing many books, into separate pdf files, one for each book, in a pdf editor. I then found a new cover for one of the books via the individual Edit Metadata dialogue and pressed OK. The book, with the new cover then showed up in the main Calibre window. Fine so far.

But when I then uploaded the file with the new cover to my Pocketbook online reader the file showed up without the new cover. Can´t you do this with a pdf file in Calibre or did I do something wrong?

As a work around I then inserted the new cover in the original pfd file. It then showed up in the reader as it should. But I suspect it then didn´t show up as a cover but as page 1 in the file.

I would be very grateful for some clarifying input!
