About epubcover

A small tool for one deceptively technical job.

Replacing an EPUB cover is not always as simple as overwriting a file. Readers can use different package declarations depending on the EPUB version and how the book was created.

What this tool is for

epubcover helps authors, readers, and library organizers add or replace a cover without installing a desktop ebook suite or uploading the whole book.

Design principles

Current limits

The tool supports DRM-free EPUB files and JPG, PNG, or WebP source images. It does not remove DRM, convert other ebook formats, edit full book metadata, or batch-process a library.
