Shouldn't the font be unchanged if the only tweaking is to the text?
You didn't mess with the font size. A lot of ePub is made with the font set to small. A lot of AZW3 is converted from ePub. SO the AZW3 you are dealing with is most likely one of those ePub with the font size set to small converted to AZW3.
