No. Because FFDL also has CLI and web service versions, it uses it's own code to generate epub, mobi, html and text output.

However, I also acknowledge that FFDL's mobi output is marginal and recommend that Kindle users download to epubs and use calibre to convert to azw3 or mobi for their devices. It's better output and can use the epub update feature. That's what I do for my Kindle.

In that case, yes, the calibre conversion settings matter.

And in case you didn't notice it, calibre remembers conversion settings per book. So changing settings for one book will be used and remembered for that book, but not others.
