Cover pages

[duluoz]

Hi. When using Calibre to create a mobi or epub publication, for example The Hindu, the cover page has the date at the bottom and swirly designs in the corners.

I'm struggling to replicate this using the command line, which doesn't create the cover with the date. I've tried the pretty-print and the prefer-metadata-cover options but it's still not the same as the Calibre generated content.

What equivalent command line command would best replicate the Calibre version for publications?

Thanks
