Have you tried a different font? On mine I'm using MS Times New Roman, size
14, line spacing 1.2. And it looks great.

On my system, the text was perfectly fine before I changed the settings. I
can't remember what the default font and size was, but it was legible and not
overwritten like the example you posted.
Have you tried removing ~/.FBReader to see if it solves itself on a clean
restart?
What does the Style group in ui.xml have to say? Here is mine:
<group name="Style">
<option name="Base:fontFamily" value="Times New Roman"/>
<option name="Base:fontSize" value="14"/>
<option name="Base:lineSpacingPercent" value="120"/>
