Calibre ebook cover size help

Hi all - just started using Calibre with my Ipad Air 4. With the help of the cover resizer plugin, I am unsure which dimensions I need as the resizer does not work in inches/centimetres, and I want the book cover to fit the Ipad more or less perfectly. The dimensions for the Ipad screen are 9 inches (23 cm) height and 7 inches (18 cm) width.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Gavin.

Book covers are not the same aspect ratio of the iPad screen. You'll have space on the left/right side of the cover. That's how it is.
