The driver has options to send the cover images which means calibre generates them from the cover in the library. That will downscale the cover to the size the device uses, but it wont upscale them.
I understand you helped make the KoboTouch driver. So If I have polished EPUBs in Calibre right now, with book covers that vary in size, the driver will automatically make them the same size when sending them over in "my books" on the kobo device? I attached a photo of the driver settings I have configured from other forum's advise.
