What
This plugin inserts your Calibre cover as the first page of the book's PDF.
Why
Most ereader software uses the first page of the PDF as the
de facto cover. Many PDFs, such as public domain books from Internet Archive or Google Books, have first pages that are poorly suited for that purpose.
How
It uses pypdf to insert your cover file, so pypdf is a bundled dependency. It also adds a flag to the PDF metadata, so if you change the cover later, it replaces the first page instead of inserting another one.

alpha release. This is also my first Calibre plugin. Use with caution.
