Could you try the latest 'experimental' version, post #46. Post a message in the thread letting us know the result. If it does what you want I'll ask davidfor/JimmXinu if they could make that version python 3 compliant and we'll get the first post updated. If it doesn't….
Thanks

It seems to do the job...
I've now got it set to 474x630 with "Keep aspect ratio" checked (3/8 of my Kindle's screen resolution), so it usually comes out at 630 high by 400-and-something. The image is clear enough to keep me happy, and the file size is reduced to something reasonable.
Of course the one thing it doesn't do is change the cover page SVG but I can live with that... I can do a "resize cover" as the first thing I do on new books before I edit them.
