And a lot of the library books we borrowed this time around are older... so wouldn't that negate the possibility that it was a publisher-set font, since this issue began to occur for us only within the last couple of weeks?

What happens depends on the book and the option. A lot of it depends on the style definitions in the book. Some are completely overwritten, some aren't and some are used in combination. For an epub, the margins should do something as they control the space on the sides of the viewing are. The line spacing should as well as it acts as a multiplier of sorts. I can't think of exactly how the font and size behave.
The exact behaviour depends on the firmware version. Early firmware couldn't adjust either the margins or line spacing if these were set in the books. There was also a difference depending on if the book set them in relative terms (em) or absolute (px). Also, I tend to find that older books are worse for this. There are still plenty of books with rubbish code in them, but I think the publisher/creators are slowly seeing the light. Very slowly.

Unlike Cinisajoy, I did take you as a "clueless old fart". After all, you've been here for a total of FIVE posts, how could you not have been converted to the "Church of calibre"?
