Optimum size book covers?
Hello,
I have just purchased a basic Kindle and can't seem to find the optimum size for images for books I have on Calibre that I wish to transfer for them to display on the Kindle? Thanks in advance Rebel Last edited by Rebel2021; 02-12-2021 at 04:53 AM. |

What I do is take any cover with more then 1600 lines and reduce it to 1600 lines keeping the correct aspect ratio. I do this using Calibre's eBook editor. It means that I have a cover that's not too large and one that's large enough for hi-res screens. if you want to have covers just fo your current Kindle, you can size them to 1024 lines (it's always good to be slightly larger then the screen's resolution). |

Thanks Jon for the quick reply,sorry to sound a bit stupid, but do mean 1024 high and if so what width?
No plans at the moment for the future, so happy to just have them for the current Kindle |
