I use a window a bit bigger than a typical fiction paperback and a bit wider aspect ratio. I like a good bit of whitespace in the margin to help me concentrate. I don't want the text to feel crampt or my reading scanline to enter another window. After making the changes I zoom in (ctrl-mousewheel) until the text is roughly 20pt on a 34" screen (depends on the screen). The viewer might need to be restarted to sort out the layout changes.
This is what I have in my notes for the settings. Just a result of iterative poking until I like it so the css is uh... not fit for a code review :)
# Font
Baskerville (google fonts) I think I might use Merriweather on some OS because they render differently, I can't recall offhand).
