svg as cover image
There is some way to set an svg as cover image of an epub?
If not yet, it would be a good idea, in my opinion...
Thank you!

A cover image has to be a rastor image such as JPG, GIF, or PNG.

In practice, most publishers will only accept JPEG (JPG) or PNG files except Amazon which lists TIFF and JPG.

I do use an svg wrapper around the image file.
