I imported the book into Calibre, then went to Convert Individually / Look and Feel. The resulting dialogue asks for "base font size" (which is preset to zero) and "font size key" (which is blank).
My problem is that I don't know what to enter into those fields.
I'm not worried about rescaling all the fonts throughout the book. I just want to make the body text a couple of points larger.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hover your mouse over the field area for tips.
I use base 18
the wizard button gives more info and options.
basically, when the CSS calls for the use of xx-small the first key value gets used. xx-large, the last value. you can elect to be non-liniear on the values in between
