So my next question is...looking at the 0.75em code - what is the font size? The code only states an em size, so how does sigil (or the ebook reader) know what the font size is? Or is this based on the stock setting under appearances??
Diapdealer - here is the code for the book with 0.75em. I think you're right.
Code:
<body class="calibre">
<div class="calibre1">
<div class="s1">
<p class="calibre2"><span class="none1">the text</span></p>

The DEVICE (and the viewer) has 'a' default. It really does not matter since you can zoom (reflow) the text.
Think more about relative proportion of the sizes, rather than exact.
On my 5" Astak, I use 1.2em for the body (my base) and a Zoom level 3 (1 being no change) on the device. This has an added benefit of leaving the Adobe, always there, block numbers tiny when compared to text.
Now, 3 is also about the same size a a mass market paperback
