Thanks jackie_w, Modify was one of the first optional plugins I installed I have a feeling that it might have been yourself who told me about it then :lol:

In addition to removing the cover I've been using Modify to straighten punctuation, inject metadata, and remove jackets. All of which I can now do with Polish Books - except remove the cover, which I never wanted anyway.

Why would I prefer to use Polish Books?

First up I have the utmost respect for Kiwidude.

However, as someone who spent a good part of his working life on configuration management, I have a predilection for reducing the number of components installed on my system.

Polish is simpler, a tad faster, and less obtrusive (uncheck Show Report), and its part of the Calibre furniture. If I needed Modify for one of its many other features then I know where to get it.

The unavoidable, mandatory, no questions asked adding of the cover during conversion to ePub, is something that's annoyed me about Calibre since I first installed it. The only way to stop Calibre not putting the cover in the ePub is to not have a cover

BR
