How do I change calibre's settings so that it will do this for me.
An alternative to changing the first page of the book to display the new cover, is to configure the KoboTouch device plugin to upload covers. This will cause the device to use the cover shown in Calibre instead of the first page of the book, which gives better results if the cover does not have a 3:4 aspect ratio.
