Hi All

I'm sending Epub files and with cover images to my Kobo Touch. When I've disconnected and rebooted the Kobo I can see the image I've just sent flash for a second and it is then replaced with a page image. It seems that the Kobo is rejecting the image that Calibre has uploaded and is then replacing with a default first-page image. So far , I've not been able to get the image sent by calibre to load. The books themselves load fine.

I looked in the Calibre library folder and the images all seem to standard jpg images. Does anyone know why the Kobo is rejecting them? What format image is it expecting , I wonder , and can Calibre reformat on the fly to accommodate what the Kobo is excepting?

Grateful for any advice.
