How to Create an eBook Cover

I am currently working on an eBook version of the third edition of my book Managing the Training Process. I will describe the process for creating ePubs and other eBooks in another article, but the first thing I needed to do was to create a cover.

Buy a PDF of this article for £2
Buy an eBook-cover template (.pptx and .opd) for £1.25

I used LibreOffice to do this. LibreOffice is a private, free and open source office suite – the successor to the OpenOffice project.

LibreOffice has its own formats, but it's also compatible with Microsoft Office 365 files (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx). It's backed by a non-profit organisation.

If you haven't got a copy of LibreOffice, you can download one from: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/
