If you find the high end becoming too large try setting a key that has different (I can't remember whether smaller of larger sizes on the high end).

If I remember right the SONY reader output profile by default uses the key
7.5, 9, 10, 12, 15.5, 20, 22, 24

This key has been optimized for EPUB output as going forward I'm pretty sure SONY will drop LRF. You might have to experiment a little to find the best key for your needs.
I changed the font size key list to:
7.5, 9, 10, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12 and this solved my problem. The lrf file generated by Calibre no longer has the super-sized book author and book title strings as produced by Book Designer.

I'll play with epub next. Thanks for your help, Kovid!
