PHP Code:
<guide>
        <
reference href="cover.jpg" type="cover" title="Cover"/>
    </
guide
whether of not the folder contained a cover.jpg file so that if I subsequently manually copy in a cover.jpg file everything is good and from then on (converting to other ebook formats, copying to device etc.) the cover.jpg will bet moved as it should.

My problem is that the cover.jpg does not get get copied when the OPF file is first created. CORRECT?

What is non-trivial (to me) is figuring out what the name of the containing folder will be in the library and then creating some kind of .bat file that will copy cover.jpg from the original location to the Calibre-Library location.

Thanks .. Alec
