I get a duplicated cover when converting from CBZ to EPUB (I need help please)

xavier1 · 01-15-2017, 04:35 PM

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:

The cover is duplicated in the generated EPUB. I get the cover picture two times. I don't know why.

I am trying to convert from CBZ to EPUB. The CBZ file has all pages scanned and properly numbered, that is page01.jpg, page02.jpg, etc.

OPTIONS WHEN DOING THE CONVERSION:

- I press Convert books...

- I go to... Page setup

- There in... Output profile, I select: Generic e-ink HD

- In Input profile, I select: Default Input Profile

Comic Input:
Disable comic processing, I have this activated

No default cover, I have this activated

I generate the EPUB perfectly, however, I have the cover generated two times.
So page 1 is the cover, and page 2 is also the cover. Page 3 is page 2, page 4 is page 3... and so on.

I don't know how may I solve this.
Could you help me please?

There is no way to robustly solve this. Because cbz does not have any notion of cover. The best you can do is remove the cover in calibre before conversion and in the epub output section of the conversion dialog tun on the "No default cover" option.
