[Bug 41509] New: Recommended book cover dimensions should be included on upload
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41509 Bug ID: 41509 Summary: Recommended book cover dimensions should be included on upload Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: 25.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: esther.melander@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl It would be nice if Koha included recommended dimensions for book cover images in all the places where a cover image can be uploaded. The Koha manual seems to indicated uploaded images will be processed into 140 x 200 or 600 x 800, but it's not really clear if these are recommended dimensions to begin with. Anytime images are processed, images can be distorted if the original image does not have the correct aspect ratio. It would also help the appearance of the cover images when displayed in the catalog to be more consistent. So perhaps a two-part bug: What are the recommended dimensions? Add the recommended dimensions to the upload pages: 1. Bibliographic detail, images tab and upload screen. 2. Add to Tools > Upload? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

I'm also not sure whether this also has some interaction with the display of cover images from other sources, such as Amazon or Coce. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Anytime images are processed, images can be distorted if the original image does not have the correct aspect ratio.
Can you give an example? I just tried it with a 1920x1080 image and the aspect ratio was not changed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

I also wrote this bug before I learned Koha processed the images by percentage rather than the forced dimensions mentioned in the manual. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
