-This LaTeX class I use to format covers for [my books](https://www.yegor256.com/books.html),
-which I sell [on Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Yegor-Bugayenko/e/B01AM1QMDK).
-The problem this class solves is [the necessity](https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/G201953020)
-to change the size of the cover PDF respectfully
-to the number of pages in the book — the bigger
-the book, the larger must be the cover. The provided class makes necessary
-calculations on-fly, using the [`qpdf`](http://qpdf.sourceforge.net/) tool. Obviously,
-you need to have it installed. Also, you must
-run `pdflatex` with the `--shell-escape` option, in order to allow LaTeX to run `qpdf`.
-
-First, [install it](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Installing_Extra_Packages)
-from [CTAN](https://ctan.org/pkg/kdpcover)
-and then use in the preamble:
-
-```tex
-\documentclass[pdf=my-book.pdf]{kdpcover}
-\begin{document}
-% Here you print the cover as you wish, but I recommend
-% you to use the commands available in the class, such as:
-\putSpine{my book, vol. 1}
-\putAuthor{Yegor Bugayenko}
-\end{document}
-```
-
-The full example and all commands are available in the
-[`kdpcover.tex`](https://github.com/yegor256/kdpcover/blob/master/kdpcover.tex) file.
-
-If you want to contribute yourself, make a fork, then create a branch,
-then run `make` in the root directory.
-It should compile everything without errors. If not, submit an issue and wait.
-Otherwise, make your changes and then run `make` again. If the build is
-still clean, submit a pull request.
