Question

Can ADE help Nook users? The covers for DRM epubs do not show when copied to the Nook Tablet.

I've looked in many forums to find the answer: ADE displays DRM protected epub book's cover art from library downloads but when copied to Nook Tablet, the nook does not display the cover. Seems like B&N does not allow the full flexibility in the ordering/naming within the opf file that the standards allow? I have a bad feeling that B&N has no wish to resolve this issue. Could Adobe find it in their hearts to help with this? Please? The ugly gray covers are awful. (shame on B&N)

Your last comment says it all. ADE will transfer only that information

which is contained in the .epub file to the Nook - it has no way to know

what is 'cover art' and what isn't. So, if it displays in Reading mode or

Library mode in ADE, that information is transferred when you copy it to

your Nook. Please keep in mind also that the 'Nook Tablet' is not listed

as a supported device by ADE in THIS list of Supported

Devices.<http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/supported-devices>

So, that confirms by implication that the Nook Tablet's software may not be

doing the job that you expect.
