How do I download my Simplebooklet’s cover image?

You can download your Simplebooklet's cover as a JPEG, a social media image or an animated GIF that flips through its pages. Use it in emails, social posts, newsletters and on your website to show people what they'll see, then link the image to your Simplebooklet so they can open it in one click.

Available on all plans.

How do I download my cover image?

On your Dashboard, click Share on your Simplebooklet. If you're already editing it, click Share in the top-right corner.
Under Export, click Cover Image.
Choose a format. A preview shows on the right.
Click the download button below the preview, such as Download JPEG.

The image saves to your device.

Which format should I choose?

Format	What you get	Use it for
JPEG cover image	Your cover on its own, at your Simplebooklet's page size	Websites, documents and presentations
Social media image	Your cover centred on a 1200 x 640 px background, the wide shape social posts use	Facebook, LinkedIn, X and other social posts
Animated GIF (500px)	An animation that flips through your Simplebooklet's pages, 500px wide	Email newsletters, blog posts and web pages, where motion catches the eye
Animated GIF (250px)	The same animation at 250px wide	Email signatures and smaller spaces where file size matters

An animated GIF shows readers there's more inside than the cover, which can get more people to click through and open your Simplebooklet.

How do I make the image open my Simplebooklet?

Wherever you add the image, link it to your Simplebooklet:

In an email or newsletter tool, add the image, select it, and add your Simplebooklet link.
On a web page, add the image and set its link to your Simplebooklet link.
For a ready-made image and link, use Cover under Embed instead. It gives you code with your cover image already linked to your Simplebooklet. Learn more: How do I embed my Simplebooklet on my website?

Copy your link with Copy Link at the top of the Share tab. Every click on the image then counts as an open in your Reports.

Common questions

Does the cover image update when I update my Simplebooklet?

No. A downloaded image is a copy. If you change your cover, download a new image and swap it in wherever you've used the old one.

Can I change which page is used as the cover?

No. The cover image always comes from your Simplebooklet's first page. To use a different image, change your first page in Edit. To show readers a different page first when they open your Simplebooklet, use Set Start Page. Learn more: How do I manage my Simplebooklet link?
