Calibre does not show the covers of PDF files
Hello.
I have been using Calibre for several years without any problems, but now I have changed my PC and after installing it on the new PC, I see that every time I import a book in PDF format, the cover does not appear in the book details window. I have been looking at the options, but I can't see what needs to be changed for them to appear automatically, as they used to. Please, can you help me? Thank you |

Works for me.
Check Preferences->Look and feel->Book details - is Show cover checked (it's the first setting)? PDFs don't have designated covers as such. Calibre extracts the first page and uses it to create a cover.jpg in the book folder, this is what gets displayed in Book details… is it there? If it's not try adding a PDF after restarting calibre with no plugins… there's an option in Preferences drop down. If that works you should be able to figure out which plugin is creating the problem |
