If you instead just tick "Remove existing cover" it is going to remove whatever cover page is currently set, and the book will open at whatever page happens to be next. Which might be an image page of some kind, or it might be text, depends on what is inside each book.
Is this still the best way to INTEGRATE Covers into a given ePub? .. so that it is shown in the LIBRARY view as well as the cover image when the ePub is first opened.
